Podcasts about Pakistan

Today's Headlines: Russia is having a great week. It's sharing satellite imagery, intelligence, and drone technology with Iran, sending a tanker of 700,000 barrels of crude to Cuba in direct defiance of the U.S. blockade, and watching oil approach $110 a barrel. Israel assassinated Iran's intelligence minister, Iran's new Supreme Leader vowed revenge, and the IDF is still running wide-scale strikes across Iran and southern Lebanon. The Fed announced no interest rate cuts this month — or likely this year — because starting a war with no plan tends to complicate things. Gas nationally jumped nearly a dollar a gallon in under four weeks, wholesale food prices hit their biggest spike in a year, and that's before oil prices fully filter through to grocery shelves. Trump's solution is to quietly waive sanctions on Venezuelan, Russian, and Iranian oil — the sanctions he spent years bragging about. On Capitol Hill, Tulsi Gabbard testified at the Worldwide Threats Hearing and managed to both defend the war and confirm that Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, and Pakistan are jointly developing nuclear missile systems targeting the U.S. homeland — apparently without noticing the tension there. She declined to confirm Russia is arming Iran, even as it's actively happening. Markwayne Mullin's DHS confirmation hearing got contentious, with Rand Paul making clear he's a no. The Fed held rates steady and basically told Trump to stop asking. In a bombshell report, the New York Times published allegations from more than 60 sources — including civil rights icon and UFW co-founder Dolores Huerta — that labor hero Cesar Chavez groomed and sexually abused girls as young as 12 within the movement. Huerta, now 95, said the abuse led to the birth of two children she placed for adoption, and that she stayed silent for 60 years knowing she would be pushed out of the movement she helped build. Her statement is devastating and worth reading in full. And Meta shut down Horizon Worlds — its virtual reality social network that almost no one used and that cost the company a reported $77 billion.

The war in Iran has sent shockwaves through global energy markets - and no region feels it more acutely than the Indo-Pacific. In this episode, co-hosts Ray Powell and Nydia Ngiow sit down with Paul Everingham, CEO of the Asia Natural Gas & Energy Association (ANGEA), who joins after spending two days at the Indo-Pacific Energy Security Ministerial in Tokyo.​With the Persian Gulf's Strait of Hormuz effectively closed, roughly 20% of the world's oil supply and a significant share of global liquid natural gas (LNG) exports are blocked. Paul explains that 70% of Asia's oil originates in the Middle East, meaning every country in the region is exposed. On the natural gas side, South Asian nations - India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh - face the sharpest pain, as they depend heavily on Qatari LNG, while North Asian buyers like Japan and Korea are somewhat shielded by receiving Australian and US supply.The conversation covers Qatar's shutdown of its LNG processing facilities and why a full restart could take six months if hydrocarbons are stripped from the plants. Paul unpacks the potential role of Russian oil and gas if sanctions are eased, the limits of pipeline alternatives from Saudi Arabia, and why coal use - already at record highs - is likely to climb further in 2026 as countries seek cheaper and more abundant alternatives.​On nuclear energy, Paul is clear: it should be part of every country's portfolio, but with a 10–20 year development timeline, it is a medium-term solution, not an immediate fix. His core advice to Indo-Pacific policymakers: diversify energy sources and lock in long-term contracts to hedge against price shocks.​The episode closes with a sobering warning: if the disruption drags on, the world faces potential rationing, surging inflation and a severe global recession.

AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports Pakistan has offered an olive branch to Afghanistan at the end of the holy month of Ramadan.

Israel claims to have killed more senior members of Iran's leadership; we ask what the death of security chief Ali Larijani could mean for the war. Also in the programme: in the Afghan capital Kabul, dozens of people have been killed in an airstrike on a drug treatment centre, which the Taliban government has blamed on Pakistan; why is one of the world's most influential tech billionaires in Rome lecturing about the Antichrist? And we hear about the endearing qualities of a newly discovered subatomic particle.(IMAGE: Ali Larijani, former chairman of the parliament of Iran, attends a press conference after meeting with Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri in Beirut, Lebanon November 15, 2024 / CREDIT: Reuters / Thaier Al-Sudani / File Photo)

durée : 00:03:24 - Le monde à l'endroit - La guerre ouverte entre le Pakistan et l'Afghanistan déclenchée la veille de l'offensive contre l'Iran a provoqué lundi 16 mars la mort de 400 personnes lors de frappes contre un hôpital de Kaboul.

Earlier last last week, he United Nations reported that around 300,000 Lebanese had been displaced since Israel opened a new front in southern Lebanon amid this widening regional conflict. Yesterday, that figure surged to more than 800,000 people forced from their homes in just a matter of days. Lebanon is where the humanitarian crisis stemming from the Iran war is most urgent at the moment—but the fallout is rapidly spreading across the region. In Gaza, humanitarian aid has dropped dramatically following Israel's decision to close a major crossing. Pakistan is bracing for refugees even as it is in the midst of its own war with the Taliban, and in Iran itself, more than 3 million people are reportedly displaced. But according to my guest today, the impact of this conflict on some of the world's most vulnerable people will be felt far beyond the region. Scott Paul is the Director of Peace and Security at Oxfam America. We begin by discussing the various crises this war has sparked across the region before turning to a broader conversation about the impact this conflict will have on humanitarian operations worldwide. In short, the ability of local and international humanitarian organizations to meet the basic needs of millions of people around the world has just become substantially more difficult because of this war. https://www.globaldispatches.org/40PercentOff

Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Kuwait all reported attacks overnight, with air defences working to intercept them, though the frequency is much less than in the early days of the conflict. Earlier the Iranians urged the UAE to evacuate the port zones of Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Fujairah. We hear about Iran's strategy. Also in the programme: Pakistan accuses the Afghan Taliban of crossing a red line by launching drones into its airspace; and how an Oscar-nominee picked a fight with the worlds of ballet and opera.

Rating democracies is a tricky business.  Something makes the Indian Subcontinent different. All of its nations, from the Maldives through Sri Lanka, India, Nepal, Bangladesh and Bhutan have regular elections. Of course the quality of democracy varies, let's say from Pakistan at the lowest rung to India. Peaceful power transfers followed uprisings in India's neighbourhood— from Bangladesh, Nepal to Sri Lanka. Watch this week's #NationalInterest with ThePrint Editor-In-Chief Shekhar Gupta

About Daniela Daniela Draugelis didn't just study cultural intelligence, she lived it before she even had a name for it. Born in Argentina to a Lithuanian immigrant family (her father fled Europe as a war refugee), she grew up speaking Lithuanian at home, celebrating cultural traditions on weekends, and navigating between worlds long before anyone called it "code-switching." Twenty-plus years of globally mobile life across China, Indonesia, the US, and now Pakistan, she's a certified Cultural Intelligence facilitator who helps executives, diplomats, and globally mobile individuals not just survive the crossing — but genuinely thrive. Find her at culturalpathways.comWhat You'll Walk Away With This is one of those conversations that gives you language for things you've always felt but couldn't quite name. Daniela walks us through the four pillars of Cultural Intelligence, including Drive, Knowledge, Strategy, and Action - and explains why having just one or two isn't enough. You can read every guidebook about your new country and still find yourself eating lunch alone in your car, wondering why nothing is clicking. We also get into the fascinating difference between tight and loose cultures, and what it costs us, both emotionally and practically, when we find ourselves leaping between them. And in true nomadic spirit, Daniela shares the moment she asked her Pakistani hostess for the "restroom" and was shown to a bedroom. Even after 20 years, culture has a way of keeping us beautifully humble!Be Curious, Not Judgmental Daniela's parting wisdom comes straight from Ted Lasso , and it might be the most portable cultural intelligence tool you'll ever carry. Do you know someone navigating a new culture right now?

In this episode, Eli Cahan (2019 cohort) talks with Abuzar Royesh (2018 cohort), who imagines a world where there is no inequality between developing and developed worlds. Abuzar reflects on how his childhood spent between Afghanistan and Pakistan shaped his worldview, and how his time in the United States as an exchange student sharpened his awareness of global inequality. He recounts how he decided to attend college in the United States and focus on policy, a path that led him years later to Stanford, where he earned two master's degrees: one in international policy and one in management science and engineering.Abuzar also shares the start of his entrepreneurial journey during his time at Stanford, as well as his current work developing fraud detection and anti-money-laundering solutions for banks in Nigeria. Finally, Eli and Abuzar discuss Abuzar's efforts to help evacuate 450 Afghan girls through the 30 Birds Foundation, and the lessons in leadership and courage he learned from that experience.Highlights from the episode(2:54) Growing up between Afghanistan and Pakistan(5:56) Experiencing the United States for the first time as an exchange student(9:34) Returning to Afghanistan with newly formed perspectives(13:26) Coming to Stanford as a Knight-Hennessy scholar(17:57) Lessons from entrepreneurship at Stanford and beyond(27:26) Helping evacuate 450 young girls from Afghanistan through the 30 Birds Foundation(33:59) Favorite Knight-Hennessy Scholars core memories

It's Tuesday, March 10th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson and Timothy Reed Afghan Christian women are getting raped Open Doors has released a video interview on YouTube of an Afghan Christian woman who tells the real story of what the Taliban is doing to the few Christians remaining in Afghanistan.  Shockingly, Christian women are being raped.  Anybody caught speaking to Christians may be killed.  In fact, a butcher who sold meat to Christians was killed. And the woman's brother-in-law was killed for his faith. In addition, Christians who have fled Afghanistan into Pakistan and Iran now face the threat of deportation back into Afghanistan because the Taliban government has soured relationships with its neighboring countries. China, Russia and America all spending more on military The world is arming up. China hiked its 2026 defense budget to $275 billion — a 10.4% increase year on year. This follows  7% increases over the previous two years —- making for a 25% increase in three years. Meantime, Russia has increase its military budget four-fold since the early 2020s, according to a report from the Center for European Policy Analysis. And the U.S. military budget has seen a 5% increase over the last three years. The latest number for the 2026 defense program is $839 billion.  Iran's nuclear capability inspiring American nuclear-proof bunker sales Fox News reports that Iran has 1,014 pounds of 60%-enriched uranium. That's enough to make 11 nuclear bombs. And it's an increase from 881 pounds of enriched uranium last year, and 194 pounds in 2023. The Telegraph also reports an increase in nuclear-proof bunkers sales here in America. One manufacturer claims his customer base includes two senior-level Trump cabinet members, as well as Mark Zuckerburg of Facebook and Instagram and other elites.  Monthly sales for Atlas Survival Shelters reportedly have bumped up 25-fold this year. Homosexual Australian Education official blasted homeschooling The Australian government may be coming for homeschoolers.  Australia's Assistant Minister for International Education, Julian Hill, a self-avowed homosexual, blasted homeschooling, claiming it threatened “social cohesion.”   Hill stated, “There are reports of quite extreme or conservative curricula being used which gives cause for pause and reflection if this trend continues. What is being taught to these kids? Are they mixing with broader society?” Threats and restrictions against homeschoolers are on the rise both in the United States and abroad. However, homeschooling continues to grow worldwide, and by leaps and bounds in Australia.  Deuteronomy 6:4-7 says, “Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.  You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise.” New Jersey and Hawaii aiming for homeschoolers The American Left has got homeschooling in its sights as well. New Jersey lawmakers are pushing bills that would add registration, annual notice, evaluations, record keeping, and even yearly “health and wellness” meetings with school officials for homeschool families.   And Hawaiian lawmakers are considering bills that would require homeschool students to take state tests in person at public schools. Trump urged Congress to pass the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act President Donald Trump is refusing to sign any bills that reach his desk until the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, or SAVE Act, passes the Senate. He stressed the need for its passage in his February 24th State of the Union address. Listen. TRUMP: “I'm asking you to approve the Save America Act to stop illegal aliens and others who are unpermitted persons, from voting in our sacred American elections. The cheating is rampant in our elections. It's rampant. It's very simple: All voters must show voter ID.” Though the SAVE Act works to ensure the safety of American elections, it faces a filibuster by Democrats in the Senate, requiring a 60-vote majority to pass. Call both of your U.S. Senators at 202-224-3121 to vote for the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act or SAVE Act. You can call that number 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. 202-224-3121. Jesse Jackson vowed to go further than Karl Marz As The Worldview reported on February 27th, the scandalized Baptist pastor, the Reverend Jesse Jackson, has died. Former presidents Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden attended his funeral over the weekend. Jackson's political career was stymied when he admitted to an extramarital affair and a child born out of wedlock in the early 2000s. The lapsed preacher told the New Yorker Magazine that his adultery was “in the big ledger of sins, a relatively minor offense”, not requiring any leave-taking from ministry.   Jackson was an admirer of Karl Marx, visited Marx's grave, and committed himself to advocating for the redistribution of wealth. Worse yet, he said he wanted to “go beyond” where Marx had stopped. Let's watch out. The Scriptures warn of teachers “having eyes full of adultery and that cannot cease from sin, enticing unstable souls. … These are wells without water, clouds carried by a tempest, for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever.” (2 Peter 2:14,17) 57% of Americans never attend church Religious affiliation continues to decline in the United States. According to the latest Gallup polling, a record-breaking 24% of Americans identify with no particular religion, up from 8% in 2005.   Roman Catholic affiliation has also reached its lowest level at 20%. And Protestant affiliation is down to 44%, from a high of 70% in the 1950s. Only 31% of Americans attend church almost weekly now, down from 43% twenty years ago. Sadly, 57% never attend church. That's the highest level recorded in recent history. In addition, only 47% of Americans consider religion as “very important,” down from 52% in 2016 and 70% in 1965.  Gallup's senior editor Megan Brenan explained, “Younger adults are both less likely to identify with a religion and less likely to attend services, reshaping the nation's religious landscape as they constitute a growing share of the population.” Louisiana Governor eager for Ten Commandments to post in classrooms And finally, Louisiana Republican Governor Jeff Landry  is urging Louisiana schools to display the Ten Commandments in classrooms.  The state passed a law in 2024 that required all classrooms to post a copy of the Ten Commandments, but the law had been blocked by the courts until last month.  In comments on Washington Watch with Tony Perkins, Governor Landry said schools have no reason to delay any longer. LANDRY: “It's time for them to go ahead and implement the law. These posters have been donated and have been distributed to our schools. They have no reason not to be able to post them. They don't have to worry about any litigation or legal recourse. The Attorney General will handle any of those types of issues that may come about.” In Deuteronomy 11:18, God said, “Fix these words of Mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads.” And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, March 10th, in the year of our Lord 2026. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  Plus, you can get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store.

Self-proclaimed “protest poet” Komal Bukhari tells Jared what this title means to her and how, in her view, speaking truth to power is not an act of bravery—it's a way of being. They also discuss Komal's process, how she approaches the heavy themes of her work with patience to avoid burnout, and how MFA deadlines complicate this process. She also tells Jared about teaching creative writing versus English composition, how the MFA taught her it takes a hundred hours to finish a poem, and what it's like moving from Pakistan to the small town of Carbondale, Illinois. Komal Bukhari is a Pakistani poet and MFA candidate in creative writing at Southern Illinois University. Her work explores theology, dissent, and the personal cost of defying patriarchal and religious boundaries. She writes about honor killing, blasphemy laws, and the politics of faith in Pakistan, often examining her own struggle to seek freedom within and beyond these systems. Her poem “Iconoclast” was featured by BBC Urdu, where she was named an emerging poet, and her poems have appeared in Pakistani anthologies. MFA Writers is hosted by Jared McCormack and produced by Jared McCormack, Hanamori Skoblow, and Brié Goumaz.

Qasar Younis is the co-founder and CEO of Applied Intuition, a $15 billion AI company that adds intelligence to cars, tractors, planes, submarines, and other vehicles—essentially, Tesla or Waymo without the hardware. He was previously COO of Y Combinator, started his career as an engineer at GM and Bosch, and was born on a farm in Pakistan.We discuss:1. Why the biggest AI revolution will play out in mining, farming, construction, and trucking over the next 5 to 10 years, not in software2. Why Qasar intentionally stayed under the radar for nearly a decade while building Applied Intuition, and why most founders shouldn't do that3. The truth about China's AI capabilities and why comparisons to American companies are fundamentally flawed4. The company values that drive Applied Intuition: speed above everything, laugh a lot, half the work is follow-up, never disappoint the customer5. The biggest lessons from Qasar's stint as YC's COO, including that the most successful companies show traction very early6.

FULL STREAM### March 2: Outbreak of War and Regional Volatility (1)XERXES I OF PERSIAHeadline: The Fog of War Descends Following US-Israeli Strikes on Iran (2)Summary: This file covers the chaotic initial hours of the war with Iranfollowing significant US and Israeli military strikes. Host John Batchelor and guests analyze the "long war" perspective, noting that while President Trump anticipates a conflict lasting four to five weeks, significant concerns exist regarding the absence of a ground game for regime change. The conflict has caused immediate global economic shockwaves, with oil and natural gas prices spiking as Qatari and Saudi energy production faces Iranian missile and drone threats. Reports of "friendly fire" emerge from Kuwait, where three American F-15s were downed by allied air defenses. Simultaneously, an "open war" has erupted on the Afghanistan-Pakistan border, as Pakistan launches air strikes against the Taliban, claiming to have killed their supreme leader. Inside Iran, thousands of young people are reportedly taking to the streets to support the regime's collapse. (3)Guest(s): Bill Roggio (Foundation for the Defense of Democracies), Husain Haqqani (Former Pakistan Ambassador to the US), Jonathan Syeh (Foundation for the Defense of Democracies). (4)

FULL STREAM### March 3: European Instability and Widening Conflict (5)1638 PERSIAHeadline: Europe Faces Energy Panic as Middle East War Intensifies(6)Summary: On the second day of the conflict, the focus shifts to Europe's lack of readiness for the resulting 50% spike in natural gas prices and rising inflation. Judy Dempsey highlights the "discombobulated" leadership within the EU and NATO as they struggle to coordinate a response. While French President Macron proposes a shared nuclear umbrella, German Chancellor Scholz meets with President Trump to seek clarity on war aims. Domestically, US polls indicate a lack of public support for the war, with only 27% of voters favoring the intervention. The Afghanistan-Pakistanconflict remains intense as Pakistan targets abandoned US equipment and militant camps. In Iraq, Iranian-backed militias have launched at least 16 drone attacks against US bases, though Baghdad remains relatively quiet as Iran attempts to maintain its political hooks in the Iraqi government.

In May 1974 India successfully detonated its first atomic device. It had been developed in secret with the codename Smiling Buddha. India called it a peaceful nuclear explosion, though the experimental device was in effect a plutonium bomb. The test was seen as a triumph of Indian science and technology, but it led to the suspension of international nuclear cooperation with India, and spurred Pakistan to speed up development of its own nuclear bomb. Dr SK Sikka, who was one of India's leading nuclear scientists, spoke to Alex Last in 2018 about his role in the secret project. Dr Sikka died in 2023 at the age of 82.

I'm your China travel guide in exile, Missionary Ben. Follow me on Twitter/X (@chinaadventures) where I share a new Chinese city or county to pray for every single day of the week. Feel free to email anytime: chinacompass @ privacyport.com. Visit PrayGiveGo.us for Patreon, Substack, Books & everything else! Why the Prison Pulpit? The goal is to remind people to pray for persecuted believers as Hebrews 13:3 teaches: “Remember those who are in prison, as bound with them.” We’ve looked at Wang Yi and Early Rain Church’s writings in the aftermath of their arrest and attack in 2018, but I’ve also regularly turned to other persecuted ministers who have gone before, such as Richard Wurmbrand, to give us a voice literally from prison. A lot has happened in the Middle East this week. There is much to pray for, but I want to focus specifically on reminding us all to pray for the believers in the various countries in the middle of (or even in the periphery of) the current conflict: Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Oman, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Israel, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey, Iraq, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates (those are just off the top of my head, although I think that covers most of the nations either bordering Iran or somehow involved in the conflict). I took a few minutes to put these nations into four groups, based on the similarities as to how they treat local Christians, or missionaries, within their borders. (Note: I am not an “expert” on the Middle East).
