He also touches on the complex identities within Zanzibar, such as Afro-Arabs, and the effects of the 1964 revolution which led to a significant emigration of Zanzibar's residents to Oman and other Gulf states.

Dans cet épisode de Very Belge Trip, Quentin met le cap sur Prague, capitale de la République tchèque. Souvent surnommée « la ville aux cent clochers », Prague séduit par son incroyable mélange d'architectures gothique, baroque, cubiste et post-soviétique. Mais aussi — et surtout — par ses prix tout doux : ici, une pinte coûte moins de 2 €, un ticket de tram 1,40 €, et l'entrée des musées entre 4 et 6 €. Autant dire que le portefeuille respire, sans sacrifier la qualité des découvertes.Quentin commence son périple à la tour de Žižkov, un colosse de 216 mètres construit à l'époque communiste pour brouiller les ondes venues d'Allemagne de l'Ouest. Aujourd'hui, elle offre un observatoire à 93 m, un resto panoramique à 63 m, et surtout… des bébés géants noirs signés David Černý qui rampent le long de la structure. Inattendu, déroutant, mais devenu emblématique.Direction ensuite le Château de Prague, plus grand complexe fortifié au monde avec ses 70 000 m². Ici, l'Histoire se mêle à des panoramas à couper le souffle sur toute la ville. Un autre incontournable ? La fameuse horloge astronomique, installée en 1410sur l'Hôtel de Ville, où des figurines s'animent à chaque heure pile, au grand bonheur des touristes.Quentin explore aussi les musées, du Kafka Museum au Musée Mucha, sans oublier la Galerie nationale. Tous sont abordables, bien pensés, et permettent de mieux saisir l'âme pragoise.Il salue la propreté irréprochable des rues, la sécurité ressentie même tard le soir, et l'efficacité des transports. Tout ça, une bière à la main et le sourire aux lèvres. Cet épisode prouve qu'un city-trip à Prague, c'est bien plus qu'un décor de carte postale : c'est une immersion dans une ville vivante, belle, un peu barrée, et idéale pour voyager malin.Vous rêvez de voyager à La Réunion, à Bali, en Bolivie, au Portugal, en Finlande, au Congo, en Australie, au Botswana, au Sénégal, en Irlande, en Grèce, à Oman, A Berlin en Allemagne ou encore en Italie ? De l'Europe à l'Afrique, en passant par l'Amérique et l'Asie, chaque épisode de Very Belge Trip est une invitation au voyage qui vous transporte sur les différents continents avec des voyageurs belges.

For over 250 years the United States and the United Kingdom has shared a special relationship. While not always positive... for example the British burning down the White House during the War of 1812 (thanks a lot)... the past 150 years has been very positive. Throughout it all the shared people-to-people connections have driven the relationship to new heights and provided a solid footing for collaboration across all sectors. With the recent signing of the US-UK Economic Prosperity Deal, and the ensuing steps to implement the outline, the economic relationship is set to continue. In this month's episode, we check in with British Consul General in Boston, David Clay, to dive deeper into the current state of relations between the two countries. On the eve of the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence (next year), now is a great time to assess the history and the future of the transatlantic partnership, from the economic, to military, to cultural ties that bind these two countries together. No matter the challenges that face the world in the years to come, it seems that a strong relationship will remain a steadfast point in global affairs.David Clay has been a member of the Diplomatic Service since 2005, and has been appointed as the next British Consul General to New England. David was joint head of the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office Iraq and Arabian Peninsula Department. In this role he oversaw all aspects of the UK's relationship with Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. This included UK security cooperation with the Gulf, launching Free Trade Agreement negotiations with the Gulf Cooperation Council in 2022, and the Qatar World Cup. He then worked on the UK's response to the conflict in Israel/Gaza from 2023 to 2024.From 2016 to 2020, David worked as Deputy Political Counsellor and then Counsellor at the UK's Mission to the UN in New York. He covered peace and security issues in the UN Security Council and General Assembly. This involved regularly representing the UK in the Security Council and overseeing negotiations on many resolutions on conflicts, ranging from Yemen and Mali to Sudan and Colombia.Earlier in his career, David worked for the Foreign Office in Libya before and during the revolution in 2011, and then in Egypt from 2013 to 2016. He speaks Arabic and has a Masters (Distinction) in Middle East politics. Before joining the Foreign Office, David taught English in the east of Sudan.

Romans 2:1 — Does sin really condemn all people? In this sermon titled “Thou Art Inexcusable, O Man,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones introduces Romans 2 by connecting the theme from Romans 1 which tells of how God has provided a righteousness by faith for humanity. The Jews listened to Paul preach, but thought he was only condemning the Gentiles to which Paul declared that they were missing the whole point. The Jews thought they were already saved based on their works and today's humanity can fall into that same trap. Dr. Lloyd-Jones points out that sin can lead to many consequences when interpreting the Scripture. Dr. Lloyd-Jones outlines the various ways sin skews the view of Scripture and ends with a warning to all. The Christian should never be so wrapped up with knowledge and the studying of theology that they miss the repentance at the heart of the gospel. Learning the Scriptures draws the Christian closer to Christ so that their daily practice matches their position as a child of God

Lastly, to learn more about our ministry endeavors or get one of my missionary biographies, visit PrayGiveGo.us! Why did I begin this weekly Prison Pulpit series? To remind us all to pray for persecuted pastors and believers (such as Pastor Wang Yi) as Hebrews 13:3 teaches us to do (“as bound with them”), by sharing from his own published writings in China, as well as more prison stories and sermons from others like the late Richard Wurmbrand. Today we’re going to deviate a little bit from China and talk about the ongoing persecution of Christians in Iran. Believe it or not, I just got access to my show’s analytics, and I happened to notice that we have a handful of downloads from Iran of all places. If you’re out there, please know that we are praying for you! And I hope that many more will be praying for you after today’s episode! BTW, I’ve always been fascinated with Iran and I’m excited to know that the church is growing there! If there wasn’t an extremely high risk of getting arrested, I would love to visit personally. (I almost got a Peruvian passport for that very reason.)

As recently as 1928, a vast swathe of Asia – India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Burma, Nepal, Bhutan, Yemen, Oman, the UAE, Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait – were bound together under a single imperial banner, an entity known officially as the ‘Indian Empire', or more simply as the Raj. It was the British Empire's crown jewel, a vast dominion stretching from the Red Sea to the jungles of Southeast Asia, home to a quarter of the world's population and encompassing the largest Hindu, Muslim, Sikh and Zoroastrian communities on the planet. Its people used the Indian rupee, were issued passports stamped ‘Indian Empire', and were guarded by armies garrisoned in forts from the Bab el-Mandeb to the Himalayas. And then, in the space of just fifty years, the Indian Empire shattered. Five partitions tore it apart, carving out new nations, redrawing maps, and leaving behind a legacy of war, exile and division. Shattered Lands: Five Partitions and the Making of Modern Asia (William Collins and HarperCollins India, 2025) by Sam Dalrymple, for the first time, presents the whole story of how the Indian Empire was unmade. How a single, sprawling dominion became twelve modern nations. How maps were redrawn in boardrooms and on battlefields, by politicians in London and revolutionaries in Delhi, by kings in remote palaces and soldiers in trenches. Its legacies include civil war in Burma and ongoing insurgencies in Kashmir, Baluchistan and Northeast India, and the Rohingya genocide. It is a history of ambition and betrayal, of forgotten wars and unlikely alliances, of borders carved with ink and fire. And, above all, it is the story of how the map of modern Asia was made. Dalrymple's stunning history is based on deep archival research, previously untranslated private memoirs, and interviews in English, Hindi, Urdu, Bengali, Punjabi, Konyak, Arabic and Burmese. From portraits of the key political players to accounts of those swept up in these wars and mass migrations, Shattered Lands is vivid, compelling, thought-provoking history at its best. 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.

Welcome to another episode in the “Prison Pulpit” series on the Fight Laugh Feast network’s China Compass podcast! I'm your China travel guide, Missionary Ben, still trying to get settled here in Malaysia. Follow and/or message me on Twitter/X (@chinaadventures) where I post (among other things) daily reminders to pray for China.You can also email me @ bfwesten at gmail dot com. Lastly, to learn more about our ministry endeavors or get one of my missionary biographies, visit PrayGiveGo.us! Why did I begin this weekly Prison Pulpit series? To remind us all to pray for persecuted pastors and believers (such as Pastor Wang Yi) as Hebrews 13:3 teaches us to do (“as bound with them”), by sharing from his own published writings in China, as well as more prison stories and sermons from others like the late Richard Wurmbrand. Today we’re going to deviate a little bit from China and talk about the ongoing persecution of Christians in Iran. Believe it or not, I just got access to my show’s analytics, and I happened to notice that we have a handful of downloads from Iran of all places. If you’re out there, please know that we are praying for you! And I hope that many more will be praying for you after today’s episode! BTW, I’ve always been fascinated with Iran and I’m excited to know that the church is growing there! If there wasn’t an extremely high risk of getting arrested, I would love to visit personally. (I almost got a Peruvian passport for that very reason.) But the closest I have come is flying over the heart of the country (at least once) on a Europe to Asia flight, swimming in the Persian Gulf (across from Iran) with my son in 2009, and flying along the Iranian border with Iraq on a flight from Oman to London in May.

As recently as 1928, a vast swathe of Asia – India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Burma, Nepal, Bhutan, Yemen, Oman, the UAE, Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait – were bound together under a single imperial banner, an entity known officially as the ‘Indian Empire', or more simply as the Raj. It was the British Empire's crown jewel, a vast dominion stretching from the Red Sea to the jungles of Southeast Asia, home to a quarter of the world's population and encompassing the largest Hindu, Muslim, Sikh and Zoroastrian communities on the planet. Its people used the Indian rupee, were issued passports stamped ‘Indian Empire', and were guarded by armies garrisoned in forts from the Bab el-Mandeb to the Himalayas. And then, in the space of just fifty years, the Indian Empire shattered.

Vous aimez notre peau de caste ? Soutenez-nous ! https://www.lenouvelespritpublic.fr/abonnementUne émission de Philippe Meyer, enregistrée au studio l'Arrière-boutique le 27 juin 2025.Avec cette semaine :Jean-Louis Bourlanges, essayiste.Antoine Foucher, consultant, spécialiste des questions sociales, auteur de Sortir du travail qui ne paie plus.Lucile Schmid, vice-présidente de La Fabrique écologique et membre du comité de rédaction de la revue Esprit.Michaela Wiegel, correspondante à Paris de la Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.LE CONCLAVE SUR LES RETRAITES Le « conclave » sur les retraites, voulu par le Premier ministre pour désamorcer les tensions autour de la réforme de 2023, s'est soldé par un « échec » a annoncé lundi la CFDT, marquant la fin de quatre mois de discussions infructueuses entre partenaires sociaux. Les discussions au sein de ce conclave, qui réunissait le Medef, la CPME (Confédération des petites et moyennes entreprises), la CFDT, la CFE-CGC et la CFTC, visaient à adoucir l'impopularité de la réforme Borne de 2023, qui a relevé l'âge légal de départ à la retraite de 62 à 64 ans. Au-delà des considérations sociales, l'objectif était également d'assurer la pérennité financière d'un système qui anticipe un déficit de 6,6 milliards d'euros en 2030. Pour les organisations patronales, toute concession sur la pénibilité devait s'inscrire dans un cadre garantissant cet équilibre, tandis que les syndicats insistaient sur la nécessité de compenser les carrières hachées et les impacts physiques des métiers les plus exigeants. Sur la question de l'âge, sujet sensible de la réforme Borne, l'hypothèse d'un retour de l'âge légal de départ à la retraite à 62 ans avait pourtant été enterrée par les syndicats. Dans le texte rédigé par l'animateur des débats, les représentants de salariés avaient obtenu le recul de l'âge de la décote (celui à partir duquel les assurés ont droit à une pension à taux plein, même s'ils n'ont pas le nombre de trimestres requis pour y être éligibles) à 66 ans et demi (contre 67 ans aujourd'hui).Selon l'étude Elabe réalisée pour l'Association française de la gestion financière (AFG) dévoilée mardi, les ménages semblent prêts à une vraie évolution du système : 47 % des Français se déclarent en faveur de la généralisation de plans d'épargne retraite par capitalisation en complément du système de retraite par répartition. Les « cadres » sont favorables à cette idée à 65 %, tout comme les ménages avec « une forte capacité d'épargne » à 64 % et les « investisseurs » à 56 %. Seules 18 % des personnes interrogées se montrent réfractaires à l'idée. L'enjeu financier des retraites est considérable : les pensions représentent près de 14% du PIB, 40% de la dépense sociale et un quart de la dépense publique. Le Conseil d'orientation des retraites indique, dans son rapport de juin, que l'évolution des dépenses de retraites « explique à elle seule une grande partie de la progression des dépenses publiques depuis 2002 ». Si le pays peine à financer ses services publics, c'est parce qu'il a préféré ses retraites alors que les évolutions démographiques ont bouleversé l'équilibre : il n'y a plus que 1,7 actif pour 1 retraité, tandis que le ratio était de 4 pour 1 en 1950. Le COR en tire la conclusion qu'il faudra reculer encore l'âge de la retraite.Mercredi, François Bayrou a affirmé que le conclave n'était « pas un échec » et présenté jeudi le résultat des discussions après avoir « tranché » sur« les désaccords ».LA GUERRE USA-IRAN L'attaque américaine, menée dans la nuit de samedi à dimanche derniers sur l'Iran, a été « intentionnellement limitée » à des cibles nucléaires et ne visait pas un changement de régime, a déclaré dimanche le Pentagone. Avec l'opération Midnight Hammer (Marteau de minuit), Donald Trump a exploité une fenêtre d'opportunité après qu'Israël a presque réduit à néant les alliés régionaux de l'Iran (Hamas, Hezbollah) puis les défenses iraniennes. S'il proclame toujours vouloir la paix, Donald Trump n'hésite pas dégainer. Il l'avait fait à trois reprises au cours de son premier mandat : contre la Syrie, après des attaques chimiques, en avril 2017 puis en avril 2018, enfin en ordonnant un assassinat ciblé à Bagdad contre le général iranien Soleimani, chef des forces spéciales des Gardiens de la Révolution, en janvier 2020. Toutefois, jusqu'à dimanche, il s'agissait d'opérations limitées.Dimanche, le président américain a annoncé que les trois sites de Natanz, Fordo et Ispahan avaient été « totalement anéantis ». Une affirmation difficile à confirmer, les cibles étant souterraines. Le général Dan Caine, chef d'état-major des armées américaines s'est montré plus prudent, comme le vice-président JD Vance. Selon les « premières évaluations du champ de bataille », a dit le soldat, les sites visés ont subi « de sévères dommages et destructions ». Un document classé confidentiel du renseignement américain, relayé par CNN et le New York Times, suggère que les frappes américaines sur l'Iran auraient retardé son programme nucléaire de seulement quelques mois, sans le détruire complètement. Jeudi, l'ayatollah Khamenei a affirmé que Donald Trump a « exagéré » l'impact des frappes américaines sur le territoire iranien.En représailles, lundi, l'Iran a attaqué la base aérienne américaine d'Al-Udeid, au Qatar. Treize missiles ont été interceptés sans difficulté selon l'armée, tandis qu'un autre s'écrasait sans dégâts. La base, qui en temps normal accueille près de 10 000 soldats, était très largement dépeuplée. Pour Téhéran, « la priorité était de retrouver les voies de la négociation afin de sauver le régime », estime le chercheur Bernard Hourcade, spécialiste de la République islamique. Selon lui, « les dirigeants iraniens ne voulaient pas couper les ponts avec Donald Trump, car ils savent que c'est lui qui peut arrêter la guerre avec Israël ». Via le Qatar et probablement Oman, Téhéran avait averti les États-Unis de ses tirs de missiles contre la base aérienne américaine, afin qu'il n'y ait pas de victimes. Ce fut le cas.Mardi, Israël et l'Iran ont déclaré accepter l'initiative américaine de cessez-le-feu.Tandis que les membres de l'administration Trump revendiquent une réussite totale, les questions s'accumulent sur le sort des quelque 400 kg d'uranium hautement enrichi dont disposait l'Iran. Cette question sera au centre des négociations qui devraient s'ouvrir prochainement entre l'Iran et les Occidentaux, via l'Agence internationale à l'énergie atomique (l'AIEA), dans l'espoir de tourner durablement la page de la guerre.Chaque semaine, Philippe Meyer anime une conversation d'analyse politique, argumentée et courtoise, sur des thèmes nationaux et internationaux liés à l'actualité.

A tenuous ceasefire between Israel and Iran announced Monday appears to be holding. President Donald Trump made the announcement after unilaterally dragging the U.S. into the conflict and authorizing strikes on three Iranian nuclear sites using 30,000-pound bunker busters. Israel attacked Iran on June 13, just days before Iran and the U.S. were set to resume talks in Oman over the country's nuclear enrichment program.“ You don't have to be anti-war to understand that diplomacy in this case would've been better,” said Hooman Majd, an Iranian American writer and the author of three books on Iran. Majd is a contributor to NBC News and covered the 2015 Iran deal for the network. This week on The Intercept Briefing, Majd joins host Akela Lacy to discuss what's left of the path to diplomacy after years of sabotage, from Israel's aggressive military posture to Trump's withdrawal from the 2015 nuclear deal.

//The Wire//2100Z June 19, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: MISSILE ATTACKS CONTINUE IN MIDDLE EAST AS USA CONTINUES WARTIME PREPARATIONS. DATA BREACH LEAKS 16 BILLION LOGIN CREDENTIALS.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Middle East: Missile attacks between Israel and Iran continue. Crude oil prices have increased in response to the concerns that Iranian forces may mine the Strait of Hormuz (as has been theorized as a possibility for a long time). Navigational issues remain palpable as GPS jamming and spoofing has prevented satellite navigation methods from being effective. US military logistical flights continue throughout the region, and non-essential personnel are still quietly being evacuated from various diplomatic posts (such as the US Embassy in Baghdad). This afternoon the White House stated that President Trump will make his decision on direct strikes against Iran within the next two weeks.AC: As with everything the White House has stated this week; this can be interpreted in many different ways. This could be a quiet way of telling Israel "no" without openly defying them, or (more likely) it could be stalling for time while American military assets continue to pour into the region. There is also a fairly good chance that the "2 week" time period is a deception tactic, and that a decision has been made that will come to fruition much sooner than that.-HomeFront-USA: This afternoon a new data breach was reported as approximately 16 billion login credentials have been leaked. Google, Apple, and Facebook are most affected by the breach, which was discovered back in May (though the magnitude of which has only recently become public).-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: The GPS jamming throughout the Strait of Hormuz may be the cause of the recent collision between oil tankers in the Gulf of Oman a few days ago. GPS jamming and spoofing in these waters has been extremely common over the past few decades, so it hasn't impacted operations that much more than normal. However, it's still a concern as operating in a GPS-denied environment makes things more challenging, and if crew members become complacent, tragedy can strike very quickly. Should things also go kinetic in the Strait of Hormuz, the rescue of crews onboard stricken commercial vessels will become more challenging due to these navigational issues.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground//END REPORT//

//The Wire//2300Z June 17, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: STRATEGIC BUILDUP CONTINUES AS USA CONTINUES PLANS FOR WAR WITH IRAN.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Middle East: The previously observed strategic buildup of tanker aircraft continues, as over a dozen KC-135's moved from Europe to the Middle East overnight. Most of these tankers were flying under the "GOLD" callsign, indicating that they were flying in formation with fighter aircraft in tow. This morning, satellite imagery confirmed that almost every US Navy warship stationed in Bahrain has departed port, to include one Littoral Combat Ship, a few minesweepers, and over a dozen support vessels.This morning President Trump stated that the United States has achieved aerial superiority in the skies over Iran. President Trump also has taken to social media to demand the "unconditional surrender" of Iran, and has threatened to assassinate the Ayatollah if demands are not met.Strait of Hormuz: Overnight, two ships collided in the Gulf of Oman. The M/T FRONT EAGLE collided with the M/T ADALYNN, causing a large fire. Rescue operations are ongoing.AC: Despite early reports, this incident is not the result of combat action. It is not clear why, however the FRONT EAGLE executed a turn hard to starboard, which resulted in her collision with the ADALYNN.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: At this point, it is challenging to interpret the recent statements by the White House in any other manner than that a formal declaration of war with Iran is merely a formality. The decision to go to war may have already been signed and sealed as theorized months ago, or the die might not have been cast just yet. Either way, there's absolutely nothing that the American people can do about it at this point, other than improve personal readiness as best one can. Though tensions are palpably high right now, the real challenges will come many months after the US enters into a war with Iran, should that be the chosen course of action.More tactically, the threats to the average citizen living in the American homeland remain, though with debatable levels of severity due to the sheer uncertainty of what the threat really is. Anytime the United States targets anything in the Middle East, the potential for lone-wolf-style attacks here in the homeland increases. At the moment, however, the risks of a false-flag incident occurring to drag the United States into a war is also very high. Protests with varying levels of severity continue more or less persistently in many major US cities, which will present risks regardless of what's happening in the international space.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground//END REPORT//

As recently as 1928, a vast swathe of Asia – India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Burma, Nepal, Bhutan, Yemen, Oman, the UAE, Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait – were bound together under a single imperial banner, an entity known officially as the ‘Indian Empire', or more simply as the Raj.

Here are 3 big things you need to know—   One — The man who authorities believe shot two Minnesota lawmakers and their spouses in shootings early Saturday morning, is now in custody. Vance Boelter was taken into custody near a home in Green Isle, Minnesota. Authorities say when police closed in on Boelter in the woods, he surrendered without incident. Two --- Israel unleashed airstrikes across Iran for a third day and threatened even greater force. Also on Sunday, some Iranian missiles evaded Israel's air defenses to strike buildings in the heart of the country. The exchange of fire comes as talks on Iran's nuclear program in Oman between the U.S. and Iran were called off.   And number three — More than 500 arrests have been made in Los Angeles in connection with protests over the course of eight days. That's according to the Los Angeles Police Department. The department also noted that a dozen LAPD officers have been injured as well, including three on Saturday.
