Diego Garcia – das verlorene «Paradies»

Die Hauptinsel des Chagos-Archipels ist strategisch begehrt - die USA machten aus Diego Garcia einen ihrer wichtigsten Militärstützpunkte. Den Preis dafür bezahlte die kleine Inselgemeinschaft. Mitte der 1970er-Jahre wurde sie deportiert. Die Wunden dieser Vertreibung sind bis heute nicht verheilt. Diego Garcia gehörte zum Territorium von Mauritius. Doch Grossbritannien beanspruchte die Insel als Kolonie. Und stellte sie den USA zur Verfügung. Die Wende kam diesen Sommer: Nach langen Verhandlungen konnte Mauritius sein Eigentum endlich zurückerlangen. Dennoch bleibt Diego Garcia auch für nächsten 99 Jahre eine militärische Sperrzone, eine Basis für amerikanische Tarnkappen-Bomber und U-Boote. Dies ist besonders für jene schmerzhaft, die einst von dort deportiert wurden. «Wir wurden im Laderaum untergebracht hinter der Schiffsmesse, wo die Leute essen. Man hat uns zu den Geissen, Kühen und Schweinen gesteckt», erzählt Ariste Elysée, der damals 13 Jahre alt war. «Wir mussten auf Holzkisten schlafen. Ohne Toilette. Selbst wenn es nur vier Tage dauerte. Es war schrecklich.» Ihre Häuser und Möbel mussten die Bewohnerinnen und Bewohner von Diego Garcia zurücklassen. Die Deportation der Chagossians zählt nicht zu gewaltsamsten Kapiteln der Kolonialzeit. Doch an ihrem Schicksal lassen sich die Arroganz und der Rassismus der damaligen Kolonialherren im Kleinen illustrieren.

In this week's episode of High on Home Grown, Macky, Billy, and John break down the biggest cannabis headlines from around the world: Macky covers the major policy shift in Thailand, where the government plans to recriminalise cannabis, shaking up its billion-dollar industry. He also discusses the shocking story of a 6-year-old detained in Mauritius after a £1.6 million cannabis haul was found in luggage from London. Billy explores controversy in the UK, where PatientsCann has reported Cancard to the police, citing alleged harm to medical cannabis patients. He also looks into complaints about “intrusive” noise from a cannabis farm in Jersey. John brings us two big stories from the political sphere: Mike Tyson and other celebrities urging Trump to go further than Biden on cannabis reform, and Australian lawmakers in NSW calling decriminalisation inevitable after a report highlighted inequality in enforcement. Margaret is off this week, but we've still got a packed episode full of critical cannabis developments from across the globe!

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, for Friday's Headline Brief. Today's episode delivers rapid-fire coverage of the top global and domestic developments shaping America and the world. FBI Monitors Iranian Sleeper Cells as War with Israel Escalates The FBI increases surveillance of suspected Hezbollah operatives inside the U.S., fearing possible terror plots as Israel continues strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities. The false report of a hit on Iran's Bushehr plant sparked regional panic, though other key nuclear sites have been damaged. Israel Eyes Fordow Strike as U.S. Prepares Stealth Bomber Option Israeli commandos may attempt a daring assault on the heavily fortified Fordow nuclear facility. Meanwhile, the U.S. considers launching B-2 stealth bombers from Diego Garcia. The base's new lease with China-friendly Mauritius complicates disclosure requirements, raising diplomatic concerns. Peace Talks Stall as Trump Warns Iran and Public Opinion Backs Action Trump's updated peace offer was rejected by Iran. Polling shows 75% of Americans support preventing Iran from getting a nuclear weapon, even if force is necessary. However, some polls show less support for direct U.S. involvement. Trump Withdraws More U.S. Troops from Syria American forces are being consolidated to a single base, with local allies stepping in to fill the gap. The reduction reflects Trump's goal of letting regional players secure their own territory. Panama Sides with China on Canal Ports A Chinese state-owned consortium will take over port operations on both ends of the Panama Canal, rejecting a U.S.-backed bid. The White House is expected to respond next week to this strategic setback. Trump Extends TikTok Sale Deadline in Violation of Law Despite a congressional mandate, Trump grants another 90-day extension for ByteDance to sell TikTok. Legal challenges are expected, though both parties are hesitant to anger young voters. Democrat Governors Cut Off Healthcare for Illegal Immigrants Budget overruns in California, Illinois, and Minnesota are forcing Democrat leaders to scale back health coverage for undocumented migrants. The cuts reveal higher-than-expected migrant numbers and usage, raising questions about official immigration estimates. Portland Decline Mirrors Leftist Unrest Antifa violence continues in Portland, with attacks on ICE facilities and widespread downtown decay. Court documents cite homeless encampments and drug use inside landmark buildings like the U.S. Bancorp Tower, now for sale at an 80% loss. Poll: Democrats Losing Christian Voters Nationwide A new poll shows Christians across denominations overwhelmingly reject the Democratic Party. While Black Christians remain a core base, overall trust is eroding fast, especially in light of cultural and moral concerns. Trade War Hits Canada, Spares Mexico U.S.-Canada trade fell by 10.5% in May, while Mexico saw only a 2.8% drop. Analysts point to Mexico's more diplomatic tone with Trump compared to Canada's confrontational approach. New U.S. Battery Could End Dependence on China A Boston firm, Pure Lithium, is developing a battery that avoids Chinese-dominated minerals and uses lithium from Arkansas. The company could receive $300 million in federal backing to scale production.

Today, we highlight Cameroon, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Madagascar, Mauritius, Morocco, Nigeria, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Glorious Lord in the Church around the world. Thank you all for listening. We are looking at the earthly conversations Jesus had, as recorded in the gospels, to see if we are able to glean anything useful for our prayer lives. Our latest segment comes from John chapter 2 and the wedding party at Cana. We find not only is He the God of the impossible, but He can accomplish multiple things through one prayer.The prayer of Mary, "They have no wine." Began a miracle, at least 180 gallons of good wine. Although the miracle was a "quiet one," it accomplished all Mary had prayed, but it set the beginning of the evangelist team God would use to turn the world upside down. "This beginning of His signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory, and His disciples believed in Him." John 2:11Our So What?When we cast our prayers to the heart of our God, we scarce know how those prayers may be used in the plan of the Almighty. Therefore, we heed then the exhortations of E.M. Bounds and the apostle Paul:"Nothing is well done without prayer for the simple reason that it leaves God out of the account." " Whether, then, you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all to the glory of God." 1 Corinthians 10:31Brethren, let's pray for one another.

In this case, the court considered this issue: Must plaintiffs prove minimum contacts before federal courts may assert personal jurisdiction over foreign states sued under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act?The case was decided on June 5, 2025.The Supreme Court ruled that the FSIA itself provides the sole basis for asserting personal jurisdiction over foreign states and their instrumentalities, without the need to establish "minimum contacts" under the Fifth Amendment's Due Process Clause. The Court emphasized that the FSIA's provisions govern the extent to which foreign states can be sued in U.S. courts, and that the statute's specific rules supersede general constitutional principles regarding personal jurisdiction.This decision clarifies that when a foreign state or its agency is subject to suit under the FSIA, the standard for personal jurisdiction is determined by the FSIA's provisions, not by the constitutional "minimum contacts" test typically applied in domestic cases.The opinion is presented here in its entirety, but with citations omitted.

It argues that some of the European Court of Human Rights interpretations have limited national governments' ability to expel a minority of migrants who commit crimes. The European Court of Human Rights handles complaints against the 46-member states of the Council of Europe, under the European Convention on Human Rights, including many cases involving migrants and asylum-seekers. UK Chagos Handover to Mauritius The UK will hand over sovereignty of the Chagos Islands to the country of Mauritius. That's despite a last-minute injunction (禁令) to stop the plan, which was overturned shortly later by England's High Court. Stuart Smith reports. Panama Venezuela Resume Commercial Flights The Panamanian Civil Aviation Authority says that Panama and Venezuela will resume commercial flights nearly a year after suspending them when they broke off diplomatic relations. Venezuela pulled its diplomatic representation from Panama last July after Panama President Jose Raul Mulino refused to recognize (承認) Venezuela President Nicolas Maduro's reelection. Earlier Thursday, Mulino said during his weekly news briefing that he had received a letter from Venezuela, but that he hadn't immediately read it. Mulino did say, however, that it would be in Panama's interest to resume flights, though he said he also wanted Venezuela to agree to receive Venezuelan migrants deported from Panama.

There's a lot that goes on pre-opening in hospitality, whether it be a hotel, a club, or a restaurant. That's where Jensen Moonien comes in. He is the Founder and Managing Director of La Rencontre, a consulting firm specializing in the F&B space of hospitality. Jensen discusses the importance of hospitality, sharing enduring memories without expecting anything in return, and highlights his entrepreneurial journey, including his move from Mauritius to Dubai. The conversation covers the complexities and strategies of opening a successful restaurant in Dubai, including market adaptation, the significance of the pre-opening phase, and the vibrant restaurant and nightlife scene in the UAE. Jensen also sheds light on the influx of investments in Dubai and the evolving trends in creating immersive and festive dining experiences.Takeaways: Bring global brands or concepts, but adapt them to fit the local market requirements. Understanding the local customer psyche is essential.Focus on getting the pre-opening phase right. Ensure all aspects, from design to marketing, are flawlessly executed to make a strong first impression.Engage with local consultants who understand the market dynamics, regulatory framework, and customer preferences to navigate the challenges more effectively.Location is crucial. Evaluate whether the concept is better suited for a hotel environment or an independent setup based on the target clientele and business goals.Establish connections with local PR firms, promoters, and concierge services that can drive customer footfall and enhance visibility.Consider innovative business models like dinner shows or hybrid concepts (restaurant + nightclub) that cater to local trends and customer behaviors.Identify and capitalize on the unique aspects of the business, whether it's the design, the culinary experience, or exclusive entertainment offerings.Quote of the Show:“I think everybody is kind of sold on the dream of coming to Dubai, of having the platform to create things, and it's true.” - Jensen MoonienLinks:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jensen-a-moonien-121388b3/ Website: https://larencontre.ae/ Shout Outs:0:44 - Four Seasons https://www.fourseasons.com/ 0:45 - St Regis https://st-regis.marriott.com/ 0:46 - Ritz-Carlton https://www.ritzcarlton.com/ 4:33 - Vatel Mauritius https://www.vatel.mu/ 7:21 - Titanic https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanic 29:17 - Bagatelle https://bagatelle.com/ 29:21 - Zuma https://www.zumarestaurant.com/en/dubai 34:04 - RECA Hospitality https://www.linkedin.com/company/recahospitality/ 34:05 - Sunset Hospitality https://www.sunsethospitality.com/ 35:21 - Gaia https://www.gaiarealty.ae/services 40:57 - Sheikh Mohammed https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohammed_bin_Rashid_Al_Maktoum

Rund zwölf Stunden sind es von Frankfurt bis nach Mauritius, das gerne als "Die grüne Perle im Indischen Ozean" bezeichnet wird. Rund 1,5 Millionen Menschen leben auf der Hauptinsel Mauritius mit den Nachbarinseln Rodriques, den Cargados-Carajos-und den Agalega-Inseln. Zwei Drittel der Bewohner sind indischer Abstammung, dazukommen Creolen, also Nachfahren ehemaliger Sklaven aus Afrika und Madagaskar. Der Rest der Bevölkerung besteht aus Europäern und Chinesen. Mauritius besticht mit seinen makellosen weißen Sandstränden, an denen gern und viel geheiratet wird, die Insel gilt als "Wedding-Paradise". Doch es gibt auch weitläufige Zuckerrohr-Plantagen, plus ausgezeichneter Rum-Destillerien, und vor allem für die, die hier abtauchen wollen: schillernde Korallen, jahrhundertealte Wracks und fantastische Felsformation locken Scharen von Diving-Experten nach unten. Und wer weder das eine noch das andere mag: die creolische Küche ist scharf, bekömmlich und abwechslungsreich, und wer mag, der genießt sie besonders im alten Kolonialhaus des Zuckerrohrbarons Eugène Le Clézio rund 10 Kilometer von der Inselhauptstadt Port Louis entfernt. "Kitsch als Kitsch can" wird oft gesagt, wenn von Mauritius die Rede ist. Hier ist die alte Formel von Stereotypen wahr, echt und greifbar. Reportagen von Peter Kaiser

Professor Carl Jones is a conservation biologist who is best known for saving the Mauritius kestrel from extinction. He is the scientific director of Mauritian Wildlife Foundation, chief scientist at Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust and an honorary professor in ecology and conservation biology at the University of East Anglia.He was born in Carmarthen in Wales and was fascinated with animals from an early age, rearing rescued common kestrels, owls and hawks in his back garden. He studied biology at North-East London Polytechnic and, after learning about the plight of the Mauritius kestrel, he was determined to go out to the country to try to save the bird.He arrived in Mauritius in 1979 when there were only two known breeding pairs left in the wild. By the time he left in 1999 he'd established a captive breeding programme and today hundreds of Mauritius kestrels fly over the islands where he spent decades pioneering his, sometimes controversial, methods. Today the Mauritius kestrel is the national bird. He is also responsible for saving from extinction three species of reptiles, a fruit bat and several plants.He was appointed an MBE for his work in 2004 and in 2016 he won the prestigious Indianapolis Prize – the world's leading award for animal conservation.Carl lives in Carmarthen with his wife and two children and assorted animals including two Andean condors called Carlos and Baby.
