Die regering het 249 lede van die Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Weermag by Waterkloof-lugmagbasis in Pretoria verwelkom na hul ontplooiing na die Demokratiese Republiek die Kongo. Die minister van Verdediging, Angie Motshekga, en weermagamptenare het die soldate ontvang, wat Vrydagaand ná verskeie vertragings weens logistieke en tegniese probleme aangekom het . Motshekga het hul toewyding aan vrede en streeksbestendigheid geprys. Sy sê dit was 'n emosionele oomblik toe die terugkerende soldate die grond gesoen het:

Die eerste groep Suid-Afrikaanse soldate keer terug uit die Demokratiese Republiek die Kongo. Suid-Afrika is diep bekommerd oor Israel se aanvalle op kernaanlegte in Iran. 'n Pleidooi aan jong mans om beenmurg te skenk. Suid-Afrikaanse Chenin Blanc is baie gesog in oorsese markte.

Jim & Livio tackle one story across two movies - we cover the Tod Browning & Lon Chaney silent classic West of Zanibar. We also touch on the 1932 remake, Kongo staring Walter Huston. Our main focus is on West of Zanibar - a very modern and stylistic Tod Browning/Lon Chaney collaboration that also features Lionel Barrymore. While this isn't a supernatural style horror film, it's a dark thriller with many twists and turns. Enjoy the ride as the Borgo Pass travels West of Zanibar!

Die Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Weermag sê die eerste groep soldate, wat na die Demokratiese Republiek van die Kongo ontplooi is, sal môre na die land terugkeer. Hulle was deel van die Suider-Afrikaanse Ontwikkelingsgemeenskap se sending in die DRK. Hul terugkeer volg op die repatriasie van die oorskot van 14 soldate vroeër die jaar, wat tydens botsings met M23-rebelle dood is. Prins Tshabalala van die SANW sê die troepe sal by die Bloemspruit-lugmagbasis in Bloemfontein aankom:

Send us a textSpreuke 3:11,12 My seun, aanvaar die straf wat van die Here kom en moet jou nie teen sy teregwysing verset nie, want die Here straf die mens wat Hy liefhet net soos 'n vader doen met sy seun. Ek het vandag ‘n paar vrae vir jou: Hou jy daarvan om reggehelp te word? Hou jy daarvan om gedissiplineer te word? Komaan! Het jy al ooit gesê: "Ek kan nie wag dat iemand my op my foute wys en my reghelp nie"? Nee, as jy eerlik is, dan sê jy seker ‘nee'!‘n Nog meer ontstellende gedagte, is om te dink aan God se dissipline; God se regstelling. Alhoewel die Bybel steeds die topverkoper in die wêreld is, is dit vandag een van die dokumente wat die minste in die samelewing vertrou word.Sê my, wie het nou lus om daardie muwwe ou godsdienstige sinlose woorde te lees of daarna te luister en dit as teregwysing en as dissipline te aanvaar? Maak laat jy wegkom!In 2008 het ek 'n e-pos van 'n kolonel in een van die rebellegroepe in die Demokratiese Republiek van die Kongo ontvang. Terwyl hy 'n vredeskonferensie in Goma bygewoon het, het hy die radio in sy hotelkamer aangeskakel. Een van my boodskappe oor die eerbied vir God, het destyds gespeel. Dit is wat hy geskryf het:“Terwyl ek geluister het, het ek besef dat daar geen vrede sal wees indien daar nie eerbied vir God in die harte van die mense is nie! Daardie paar minute was die keerpunt in my lewe. Dit het my vry gemaak. Ek was op daardie stadium al 13 jaar op die slagveld. Ek weet nie hoeveel mense al aan my hand gesterf het nie, maar net daar het ek besluit om my wapens neer te lê.”Spreuke 3:11 My seun, aanvaar die straf wat van die Here kom en moet jou nie teen sy teregwysing verset nie, want die Here straf die mens wat Hy liefhet net soos 'n vader doen met sy seun.Dit is God se Woord.

Why did so many rulers throughout history risk converting to a new religion brought by outsiders? In his award-winning Unearthly Powers (2019), Dr. Alan Strathern set out a theoretical framework for understanding the relation between religion and political authority based on a distinction between two kinds of religion - immanentism and transcendentalism - and the different ways they made monarchy sacred. Please listen to his interview on that book on the New Books Network! This ambitious and innovative companion volume Converting Rulers: Global Patterns, 1450–1850 (Cambridge University Press, 2024) tests and substantiates this approach using case studies from Kongo (1480–1530), Japan (1560–1614), Ayutthaya (Thailand, 1660–1690) and Hawaii (1800–1830). Through in-depth analysis of key turning points in the careers of warlords, chiefs and kings, a tapestry of unique characters and stories is brought to light. However, these examples ultimately demonstrate that global patterns of conversion can be established to illuminate the religious geography of the world today. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Why did so many rulers throughout history risk converting to a new religion brought by outsiders? In his award-winning Unearthly Powers (2019), Dr. Alan Strathern set out a theoretical framework for understanding the relation between religion and political authority based on a distinction between two kinds of religion - immanentism and transcendentalism - and the different ways they made monarchy sacred.

Die kabinet het 'n gefaseerde onttrekking van Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Weermaglede uit die Demokratiese Republiek van die Kongo bevestig. Dit volg op die beëindiging van die Suider-Afrikaanse Ontwikkelingsgemeenskap-sending se mandaat. Die ontplooiing was deel van pogings om die oostelike deel van die DRK bestendig te maak, waar gewapende konflik duisende mense ontwortel het. Die minister in die Presidensie, Khumbudzo Ntshavheni, sê soldate sal in fases terugkeer huis toe om 'n gladde en veilige oorgang te verseker:

Frieden zu schaffen und abzusichern ist die oberste Priorität der Vereinten Nationen. Das wird für ihre Blauhelmsoldaten aber immer schwieriger: mehr Risiko, mehr Verletzte und Todesopfer, weniger Akzeptanz und Ressourcen. Vor dem Hauptquartier der UNTSO-Mission in Jerusalem führt Generalmajor Patrick Gauchat zu einer Gedenktafel. Immer wieder seien Verluste zu beklagen, sagt der Freiburger. Seit vier Jahren kommandiert er – als erster Schweizer – eine Blauhelm-Operation. Momentan sei das Risiko für die Soldaten aus zwanzig Ländern wieder beträchtlich, sagt UNTSO-Chef Gauchat. In Folge des Hamas-Überfalls auf Israel im Oktober 2023 herrsche wieder Krieg: in Gaza, in Libanon, in Syrien. Auftrag der UNTSO – der ältesten Blauhelmmission überhaupt: den Waffenstillstand von 1948 zwischen Israel und seinen vier arabischen Nachbarn überwachen. Der Besuch bei einem UNTSO-Beobachtungsposten auf den Golanhöhen zeigt: die Blauhelme beobachten nahezu täglich Verletzungen des Waffenstillstands. Sie können nur zuschauen und diese dokumentieren. Ihre Berichte werden aber immerhin von allen involvierten Staaten akzeptiert. Das ist bei Blauhelmoperationen nicht immer so. In Kongo-Kinshasa begann im letzten Frühling der schrittweise Abzug der Monusco-Blauhelme. Was mit einer Friedensmission im Zentrum einer der tödlichsten Konflikte seit dem Zweiten Weltkrieg angefangen hatte, endete als die tödlichste und teuerste Blauhelmmission der UNO. Aus anfänglicher Akzeptanz, sogar Begeisterung der Bevölkerung, wurde Ablehnung, aus beobachtenden UNO-Soldaten wurden kämpfende, die an der Seite der kongolesischen Armee gegen die Rebellengruppe M23 vorgingen. Schützen konnten sie die Bevölkerung trotzdem nicht. «Gleich neben den Stützpunkten der MONUSCO werden Menschen massakriert, Häuser niedergebrannt, Frauen vergewaltigt,» sagt die junge Aktivistin Rebecca Kabugho. Zwanzig Jahre waren die Blauhelme im Kongo, 440 von ihnen wurden getötet: eine Mahnung. Die Reportagen von den Golanhöhen und aus dem Ostkongo von zwei unterschiedlichen Blauhelm-Missionen.

Die Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Weermag sê hy het begin om sy personeel en toerusting in fases uit die oostelike Demokratiese Republiek die Kongo te onttrek. Dit volg na ʼn bevel van die Suider-Afrikaanse Ontwikkelingsgemeenskap. Die SANW het verlede maand besluit om sy magte uit die DRK te onttrek nadat 17 soldate in gevegte met die Rwandees-ondersteunde M23-rebelle dood is. Die weermagwoordvoerder, Prince Tshabalala, sê die onttrekking sal in fases plaasvind:

Das Kongobecken ist ein gewaltiges Territorium voller wertvoller Rohstoffe, und fast das gesamte Gebiet gehört Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts einem einzigen Mann. Internationale Verträge zwischen den aufstrebenden westlichen Industrienationen haben es 1885 dem belgischen König Leopold II. gesichert: als Privatbesitz.

Die oostelike deel van die DRK is sedert Januarie betrokke in gevegte met die Rwandees-gesteunde M23-rebelle.

Hy sê die Verklaring van Beginsels baan die weg vir vrede, bestendigheid en vooruitgang in die streek:

Kottoor, Naveena www.deutschlandfunk.de, Das war der Tag

Die minister van Verdediging, Angie Motshekga, het aangekondig dat planne gevorderd is om soldate van die Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Weermag wat in die ooste van die Demokratiese Republiek die Kongo ontplooi is, veilig na Suid-Afrika terug te bring. Hul terugkeer hang af van die strydende groepe se onderhandelings oor 'n skietstilstand. ​Motshekga het op die Randse Paasskou in Johannesburg gesê hulle gefinaliseer die logistiek, insluitend moontlike roetes weens die sluiting van die Goma-lughawe:

Neiecietībai pret citas rases, tautības, reliģijas pārstāvjiem, pret citādajiem nav tikai lokāls raksturs, tā ir pasaules mēroga problēma. Kā izpaužas rasisms mūsdienu sabiedrībā un kā ar to cīnīties, vērtējam raidījumā Kā labāk dzīvot. Sarunājas Domeniko Graciozo, gvatemalietis, kurš Latvijā dzīvo jau vairāk nekā 15 gadus, Lingita Lina Bopulu, latviešu valodas skolotāja, pasniedzēja, kura nāk no jauktas ģimenes, kurā mamma ir no Latvijas, bet tēvs ir no Kongo, un meksikānis Havjers Garsija. Lingita Lina Bopulu ir baušķeniece un bieži saņem jautājumu - cik ilgi tu dzīvo Latvijā; no kurienes tu esi atbraukusi? "Un tad es parasti mēdzu jokot - es esmu no Bauskas. Tā jau arī ir, ja man Rīgā jautā, no kurienes esmu atbraukusi, esmu atbraukusi no Bauskas. Tagad jau es dzīvoju un strādāju Rīgā, bet dzimusi un augusi esmu Bauskā," par sevi stāsta Lingita Lina Bopulu. "Šobrīd esmu latviešu valodas skolotāja, gan ar bērniem skolā strādāju, gan arī ar pieaugušajiem dažādos valodu mācību centros, mācu latviešu valodu pārsvarā ārvalstu bērniem un arī pieaugušajiem, kuri nāk no dažādām valstīm. Man ir studenti no Baltkrievijas, Indijas, Vācijas, Polijas, Sīrijas, Vjetnamas un dažnedažādām valstīm. Un arī mans mērķis ir gan palīdzēt apgūt valodu, gan ieinteresēt par valodu un kultūru, gan arī emocionāli kaut kādā ziņā palīdzēt, jo es diemžēl zinu, kā tas ir, ka dažreiz varbūt cilvēki tevi negrib pieņemt kā savējo," atklāj Lingita Lina Bopulu. "Tā ir savā ziņā mana lielākā problēma, jo es arī esmu vienmēr centusies būt latviskāka par latvisku, varbūt arī tāpēc, ka man vienkārši ir bijis jāpierāda. Mans bakalaura grāds ir baltu filoloģijā, maģistra grāds - komunikācijas zinātnē, tomēr es arī cenšos runāt par latviešu valodu, piedalos dažādās konferencēs pasaulē. Esmu arī bijusi Amerikā un arī strādājusi ar diasporu dažādās valstīs, jo man ir svarīgi arī kaut kādā ziņā pierādīt, ka es esmu latviete, jo patiesībā man nav citas dzimtenes. Citreiz cilvēki saka: brauc uz savām mājām, bet es pirmo reizi sava tēva dzimtenē biju 19 gadu vecumā. Bieži vien cilvēki teica pirms tam - brauc uz savām mājām, un man bija tāds - uz Bausku? Tikai stundu 10 no Rīgas ar autobusu! Tā es smējos. Es esmu no Bauskas." Ja reizēm ir situācijas, ka cilvēki saka - brauc mājās, tad ir jāizkopj kaut kādi aizsardzības mehānismi, stratēģijas, kā reaģēt, jo tas ir saistīts ar nezināšanu un neizpratni, visticamāk. "Es ļoti bieži reaģēju ar kādu joku, kā jau es minēju, ka manas mājas ir Bauskā. Man arī citreiz ir jautāts, man šķiet, ka tas bija pagājušā gadā par Lieldienām. Man jautāja, vai manā kultūra svin Lieldienas? Es ar joku atbildu, protams, ka svin un es krāsoju olas, stāstu par visām latviešu tradīcijām. Cilvēkus pretī - tiešām?  Es saku - jā! Un tiešām jūsu kultūrā tā ir? Es saku - jā, manā latviešu kultūrā tā ir. Cilvēks pretī - kā latviešu kultūrā?  Es domāju, ka šeit arī varbūt ir tā atšķirība manā personīgajā pieredzē, tā kā esmu dzimusi šeit, es tiešām arī uzskatu sevi par latvieti, kā daļu no šīs sabiedrības, un ja man kāds saka - brauc mājās un jautā par manu kultūru, es arī atbildu par latviešu kultūru, jo tā arī ir mana kultūra," atzīst Lingita Lina Bopulu. "Es par tēva kultūru diemžēl zinu ļoti maz, jo tēvs aizbrauca uz dzimteni, kad man bija divarpus gadu, līdz ar to es tā arī uzskatu un arī atbildu par Latviju, par latviešu valodu, latviešu kultūru." Lingita Lina Bopulu ir studējusi arī Itālijā, Amerikā, Zviedrijā, un arī šajās zemēs, ja kāds jautā, no kurienes viņa ir, atbild - no Latvijas. "Ja man saka - brauc mājās, mana pirmā doma ir, ka man jābrauc uz Latviju, nevis uz kādu citu vietu. Tādā brīdī es neuztveru to personīgi, ja man pasaka - tu neesi itāliete. Jā, es neesmu itāliete, jo esmu latviete. Ja man kāds Latvijā pasaka, ka tu neesi latviete, tomēr es to uztveru diezgan personīgi, jo man nav nevienas citas dzimtenes," bilst Lingita Lina Bopulu. "Varbūt tas ir mīnuss vai citreiz arī pluss, ka tiešām man to atšķirību var redzēt. Tā kā mans tētis ir pavisam tumšas ādas krāsas un mamma ir ļoti gaiša, tas es esmu, kā saku, saulaini brūna pa vidu. Bet nereti kāds mani nosauc par melno un citādos ne pārāk jaukos vārdos. (..) Es esmu šeit dzimusi un augusi, un ja man kāds pasaka, ka neesmu, tad protams, man sāp par to sirds. Ja man kāds Itālijā pasaka, ka es neesmu itāliete, protams, ka tas varbūt kaut kā nav patīkami, bet jā, es neesmu itāliete, jo esmu latviete. Un ja man kāds jebkurā citā valstī jautā, no kurienes es esmu, es saku, ka esmu no Latvijas. Ja man Latvijā kāds jautā, no kurienes esmu, saku, ka esmu no Bauskas, un tad man patīk skatīties cilvēku reakciju."  

Today on another encore edition of the Rarified Heir Podcast we are talking to Sara Karloff, daughter of the great Boris Karloff. Sara sat down with us to discuss what life was like with her father, one of, if not the most famous of the actors from the golden age of Universal Pictures monster movies along with Bela Lugosi and Lon Cheyney among a few others. Sara talked to us about her father's love of dogs, his roots in England, his favorite sport as well as his roles in films like Frankenstein, The Mummy and others that made him an icon. Sara has been tasked with guarding her father's legacy and keeping his name alive. When we spoke with her, that meant, working on a restoration of a silent film, King of the Kongo amongst other things. We even spoke with her about her father's last American film Targets and how she might looks to animate some of her father's audio recordings as well. Sara was a terrific guest as she spoke about the past, present and future of her father and his legacy. She's very much keeping it alive through film, a deal with Legendary comics and much more. So stick around and hear all the dastardly details of growing up with one of the most famous actors of all-time. Another child of a celebrity, interviewed by the child of a celebrity. Take a listen to this episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast. Everyone has a story.

Duru za pande hasimu nchini Kongo, zimesema serikali ya Jamhuri ya Kidemokrasi ya Kongo na waasi wa M23 wanajiandaa kwa mazungumzo ya ana kwa ana 9 Aprili 2025.

This is what the Nkani, which is the name of a monarch in the Kingdom of Kongo, would say to the Kongo people when he becomes king of the kingdom.

Vi hade mer politik att prata med Hasan Ramic så det fick bli ett En grej till-avsnitt med fokus på det utrikespolitiska. Vi pratar Trumps AI-genererade video om visionen för Gaza, rapporterna om USA och Israels plan att etniskt rensa Gaza genom att flytta den palestinska befolkningen till Östafrika, Rwandas destabilisering av Kongo samt gripandet och den stundande utvisningen av den propalestinska demonstranten Mahmoud Khalil. (OBS, det här avsnittet spelades in dagen innan Israel bröt mot vapenvilan i Gaza, därför tar vi inte upp det.)  Stötta oss på Patreon för regelbundna bonusavsnitt + mer!
