The Philippines and Pakistan are now the world's top solar panel importers. We find out why, and what other countries can learn from the boom!Cheap solar panels, mainly imported from China, are transforming lives and slashing electricity bills across Asia. In the last year, Filipinos have put up five times as many rooftop solar panels as the previous ten years combined. Installation companies are struggling to keep up with demand.In Pakistan, where the boom started earlier, solar power has reached every sector of the economy from the textile industry to farming. Solar has helped Pakistanis weather the current energy crisis and reduced the country's reliance on imported fossil fuels.The Climate Question Host Jordan Dunbar talks to Filipino climate journalist, Jhesset Enano, and Pakistani energy analyst, Zeeshan Ashfaq, from the Renewables First think tank in Islamabad.Producers: Jordan Dunbar and Melanie Stewart Smith Sound Mix: Tom Brignell and Dafydd Evans Editor: Simon Watts

Pakistani Christians could face renewed persecution following the Archbishop of Canterbury's decision to withdraw an honour to a leading Muslim cleric, Monsignor Michael Nazir-Ali warns in this episode of Holy Smoke.The former Bishop of Rochester speaks to Damian Thompson following the news that Lambeth Palace has had to withdraw an award to Hafiz Ashrafi after previous comments by the Imam came to light. Following the ‘Reconciliation and Interfaith Cooperation' award being presented, it came to light that Ashrafi had praised Osama bin Laden in 2007, saying he would give the mastermind of the 9/11 attacks the title Saifullah – or 'Sword of God' – for 'serving Muslims by waging jihad against infidels'. The question remains ‘why there was not due diligence' Msgr Nazir-Ali tells Damian, saying Pakistani Christian leaders fear a backlash. The ‘reactionary action on the part of extremists' should have been thought about before making the announcement, Nazir-Ali said, as he criticised Lambeth Palace. Msgr Nazir-Ali, now a priest of the Catholic Ordinariate and who was born in Pakistan, is a world renowned authority on Islam's relations with Christianity. He talks to Damian about the debacle over the award, and warns against the increasing secularisation and desecration of British churches.Produced by Patrick Gibbons. Hosted on Acast.

Pakistani Christians could face renewed persecution following the Archbishop of Canterbury's decision to withdraw an honour to a leading Muslim cleric, Monsignor Michael Nazir-Ali warns today in this episode of Holy Smoke.The former Bishop of Rochester speaks to Damian Thompson following the news that Lambeth Palace has had to withdraw an award to Hafiz Ashrafi after previous comments by the Imam came to light.

Season 20, Episode 30: Does anyone have deja vu yet? Another week, another Cricket Australia announcement that they have approved selling the Big Bash even though they can't sell it yet, another round of smashing the panic button to say that if they don't sell now it will be TOO LATE. Also this week, UK race rioters target Pakistani cricketers, but so does the Pakistani cybercrime unit. Indian and Pakistani administrators continue posturing at the women's Asia Cup, The Aussies head to Africa, we look back at a bizarre English Test season, and star wrist-spinner Kuldeep Yadav joins as the Rothesay County Championship player of the week.

He used to be the Times bureau chief in Afghanistan, as well as Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean. He won a Pulitzer last year for his work on the US intervention in Afghanistan, among other awards. He's also the author of Fear Is Just A Word: A Missing Daughter, a Violent Cartel, and a Mother's Quest for Vengeance. I discovered him simply by reading the paper and noticing an extraordinary ability to ferret out the truth. In conversation, Azam did not disappoint. A polished transcript is here, including money quotes from the chat. Below are timestamps for the main sections of the pod:05:23: Growing up in a Pakistani family in a small-town Virginia10:36: The value of fiction over nonfiction22:26: Azam's time reporting on Wall Street, and then the horrors in Afghanistan46:24: A deep dive into a terrifying new wave of synthetic drugs1:03:56: The violent settlers in the West Bank and the Israeli officials speaking outFor two clips of the episode — on the new wave of dangerous drugs, and the Israeli government arming the West Bank settlers — head to our YouTube page.Other topics: the lack of bigotry in Azam's upbringing in the South; how UVA was more tribal than his high school; the war on terror; nation-building; how little the US understood Afghanistan; funding warlords against the Taliban; not talking to Taliban officials; US propaganda and lies; a story of suicide; Estonia beating fentanyl; the mega-potency of new drugs like nitazenes; drug-soaked paper causing overdoses in US prisons; why targeting suppliers doesn't work anymore; harm reduction and Narcan; methadone; decriminalization in Portugal; the popularity of weed; the cynicism and evil of Hamas; dead kids in Gaza and US bombs; the depravity of Ben-Gvir; high-ranking Israelis against the settlements; and Bibi's polling for the coming election.Browse the Dishcast archive for an episode you might enjoy.

This week, Marina and Jem start in America — where Trump calls 18 dead soldiers "small potatoes," posts AI-generated videos of himself beating world leaders with a hockey stick, and explains trade to a room of adults too scared to tell him he's wrong. Rinse, repeat, somehow getting worse.Then they come home to Blighty — where things are going brilliantly. Hundreds of men in matching black balaclavas staged two days of (NOT) spontaneous protests in Dover and Portsmouth, injuring police, blocking ferries, and terrifying British families trying to get into town. Arrests: none. Funny that — almost like if you'd been a blind OAP or a vicar protesting for peace, they'd have found the handcuffs. Also: a coachload of Pakistani cricketers gets surrounded by a brainless mob, the RNLI gets grief for not letting people drown, and Nick Ferrari has some thoughts.

What is life really like for Sikhs inside Pakistan today? In this landmark episode of The Sikh Renaissance we sit down with Jasbir G. Singh, Chairman of the Sikh Community Balochistan and former ETPB member, for primary source testimony on the demolition of Gurdwara Singh Sabha Quetta, a 200 year old Sikh heritage site sold by Pakistani authorities for commercial development. He reveals who authorized the sale, which Gurdwaras are currently under threat, how the ETPB has systematically failed Sikh heritage, and how Pakistan's Sikh community resists forced conversion through Sikh spirituality and identity. He closes with an urgent call to action for the global Sikh diaspora. This is Sikh history being erased in real time. The Sikh Renaissance is making sure the world knows.

The Muslim NATO Alliance as some are calling the new pact between Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Turkey brings three of the leading Sunni powers together. Modelled after NATO's Article 5, any armed attack against one of the three signatories will regarded as an attack against them all. The secretariat for the pact will be located in Saudi Arabia and the first Secretary General will be a Pakistani.

When discussing all-time greats, Zaheer Abbas' place is without dispute. An illustrious international career coupled with a remarkable First Class journey in Pakistan and England, his 46,000 professional runs tell the story in a line. Add to the fact that he's the only Asian to reach 100 First Class centuries, and you know this man was a ton machine as well as a stylist. His new book, A to Zed, tells the tales of a life in the game so well spent. In this chat with Daniel Norcross at The Oval, he adds to this his dismay at the state of modern Pakistani cricket – and this was recorded before their current calamitous Test series.

On this high-octane edition of The Adult in the Room, Victoria Taft tackles a packed docket spanning national security fiction, courtroom drama, and breaking political fallout: Hot Book Summer — Don Bentley (Double Tap): New York Times bestselling author and former Army Apache helicopter pilot Don Bentley joins the show to discuss his third novel in the Vince Flynn / Mitch Rapp universe, Double Tap.

The Lindsay Clancy Murder Trial: Victoria dissects the deadlocked Massachusetts jury weighing the murder charges against Lindsay Clancy for strangling her three children. Taft examines the evidence of premeditation, the postpartum depression defense, and the media's fawning coverage of defense attorney Kevin Reddington. Epstein Thursday & Massie's 14 Names: A breakdown of Rep. Thomas Massie taking to the House floor to introduce the Epstein Files Transparency Act II, naming 14 prominent individuals associated with the late predator while calling out Department of Justice inaction.

Pakistan lost the series at Lord's. Then the actual news started.Vithushan Ehantharajah is joined by cricinfo senior editor Osman Samiuddin and Pakistan correspondent Danyal Rasool to unpack a fortnight that has moved well past "bad tour" and into something harder to watch — seven players called home mid-series, five uncapped replacements flown in, a head coach removed two Tests into a three-Test tour, and a selection committee issued show cause notices asking them to justify picking Pakistan's leading Test run-scorer.On the show:

We started reading 2nd Corinthians today: the opening chapter needs to be read slowly, carefully, as Paul makes so many points.  He shows the inter-reaction of events and the great value of prayers in all the difficulties they and he are experiencing.  “For as we share abundantly in Christ's suffering, so, through Christ, we share abundantly in comfort too.” [1 v.5]  It is, writes Paul “the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction … [v.3,4] This is a comfort we have a responsibility to pass on to others.Let us meditate and reflect on the inter-reaction of events we have personally experienced.  The more we have been active in the service of Christ, the more clearly we will perceive this.  In Paul, the Corinthians saw the most outstanding example of service.  “The afflictions we experienced,” writes Paul, was such that “we were so utterly burdened beyond our strength that we despaired of life itself.” [v.8] But Paul then came to realize, “that was to make us rely not on ourselves but on God ….” [v.9]“On him we have set our hope that he will deliver us again” [v.10]  Then Paul makes an appeal that we should specially take notice of.   He tells the Corinthians, “You also must help us by prayer so that many will give thanks on our behalf for the blessing granted us by the prayers of many.” [v.11]Many are aware today through the almost instant communication the internet provides of the desperate situations some Iranian believers have experienced.  There are also Pakistani believers who are experiencing persecution, and a few truth seekers who have felt it wise to return to Afghanistan.  Let us help them by prayer.Also, may we, as Paul writes in his 2nd chapter, spread “the fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere.  For we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved …” [v.14,15]  The world is ‘smelling' ever more evil, as the darkness becomes ever darker, but then the light should be even more evident!It is a tragedy, as we will read tomorrow in ch. 4, that “the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel …” [v.4]  But, what a wondrous blessing we have that “God, who said, ‘Let light shine out of darkness', has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.” [v.6]  That ‘light' shone physically as creation began countless aeons ago, but the wondrous fact for us is, as we will read in ch. 5, “if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation.” [v.17]   May all those who are part of that “new creation” help one another by prayer.

England Pakistan Daily, 2nd Test, Lord's Day 3: Lord's got 24 overs more play than was expected on a day that otherwise would have been abandoned early due to its world-class drainage system, but the pitch is still at the centre of debate. Is it the conditions and a frail Pakistani batting lineup to blame, or is it an inherent problem with the surface that leaves next year's Ashes Test under threat?

Pakistan helped the United States contain Soviet power and wage war in Afghanistan. Yet Pakistanis believe America abandoned them once it was no longer useful.Dr. Sidra Khan calls the relationship “instrumental.” She explains how rivalry with India shapes Pakistan's foreign policy… why China offers an alternative to American power… and how decades of war left Pakistanis feeling betrayed and used.In 2026, Pakistan emerged as a mediator between Iran and the United States.Can a relationship built on strategic necessity ever become one built on trust?

Despite the memorandum of understanding between the United States and Iran expiring last week, the window for further negotiations between Washington and Tehran toward a final deal "is not closed", Pakistan's envoy to the United Nations said.尽管美国和伊朗之间的谅解备忘录已于上周到期，但巴基斯坦驻联合国大使表示，华盛顿与德黑兰之间为进一步达成最终协议而进行谈判的窗口“并未关闭”。Asim Iftikhar Ahmad, Pakistan's permanent representative to the UN, said that Pakistan is "still very committed" to facilitating dialogue between the two sides.巴基斯坦常驻联合国代表阿西姆·伊夫蒂哈尔·艾哈迈德表示，巴基斯坦“仍然非常致力于”促进双方对话。"Our leadership is in touch with both sides. We are also working closely. We continue to work closely with the other friends," Ahmad told China Daily in an exclusive interview.艾哈迈德在接受《中国日报》独家专访时表示：“我们的领导层与双方保持接触。我们也在密切合作，并继续与其他友好国家密切协作。”He said the expired Islamabad MoU still provides a framework for the US and Iran "to engage and to hold further negotiations" toward "a conclusive and comprehensive settlement, or a final deal".他表示，已到期的伊斯兰堡谅解备忘录仍为美伊双方“接触并举行进一步谈判”提供了框架，以达成“最终和全面的解决方案，即最终协议”。However, Ahmad said it remains unclear on how the conflict will eventually end and what impact it could have on the region.不过，艾哈迈德表示，目前尚不清楚这场冲突将如何结束，以及可能对该地区产生何种影响。"I think the overall situation is still in flux," he said. He noted that countries in the region are assessing "how this will evolve in the future and what kind of steps they need to take" to ensure long-term peace and stability, amid discussions over possible changes to regional security arrangements and political alignments.“我认为总体局势仍在变化之中，”他说。他指出，该地区国家正在评估“这将如何演变，以及他们需要采取何种措施”以确保长期和平与稳定，同时也在讨论地区安全安排和政治联盟可能发生的变化。On Tuesday, Pakistani Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi said that Pakistan and Iran made "significant progress" in talks seeking to end the US-Israeli operations against Iran and find a path to peace, according to a Reuters report.据路透社报道，巴基斯坦内政部长穆赫辛·纳克维周二表示，巴基斯坦与伊朗在寻求结束美以对伊军事行动并找到和平路径的会谈中取得了“重大进展”。Talks between the two sides focused on measures to prevent further escalation, reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and an expedited termination of the conflict, Reuters reported, citing a Pakistani military statement.路透社援引巴基斯坦军方声明报道称，双方会谈重点讨论了防止局势进一步升级、重新开放霍尔木兹海峡以及加速结束冲突的措施。Given the prolonged uncertainty resulting from the US-Iran conflict, regional security arrangements are already beginning to shift. Earlier this month, Saudi Arabia, Turkiye and Pakistan signed the Makkah Joint Defense Agreement, under which an armed attack on one member is considered an attack on all three.鉴于美伊冲突带来的长期不确定性，地区安全安排已开始发生变化。本月初，沙特阿拉伯、土耳其和巴基斯坦签署了《麦加联合防御协议》，规定对任一成员国的武装攻击将被视为对三国的攻击。"Our objective is to ensure that we move forward in a way that will guarantee peace and stability for the longer term in the Middle East," Ahmad said.“我们的目标是确保我们以能够保障中东长期和平与稳定的方式向前推进，”艾哈迈德说。The diplomatic efforts surrounding the US-Iran crisis have also raised questions about the UN's role, as some of the most consequential negotiations over current international conflicts are increasingly taking place outside the UN and the Security Council.围绕美伊危机的外交努力也引发了对联合国作用的质疑，因为当前一些最重要的国际冲突谈判越来越多地在联合国和安理会框架之外进行。Ahmad said that such diplomacy does not necessarily diminish the UN's role.艾哈迈德表示，此类外交并不一定会削弱联合国的作用。"If you look back in history, there are several situations in which the UN was not the primary actor," he said, adding that negotiations conducted elsewhere have often eventually been brought back to the UN. "It doesn't mean that the UN's role is sidelined or undermined," he said.“回顾历史，有很多情况下联合国并非主要行动方，”他说，并补充道，在其他地方进行的谈判往往最终会被带回联合国。“这并不意味着联合国的作用被边缘化或削弱，”他说。He cited the Gaza conflict as a recent example. Negotiations took place outside the UN Security Council before being brought back to the body to give it "the stamp of authority and credibility".他以最近的加沙冲突为例。谈判在联合国安理会之外进行，然后被带回安理会，以赋予其“权威性和可信度的印记”。The UN Security Council in November voted and adopted a resolution endorsing US President Donald Trump's peace plan and establishing the Board of Peace as a transitional administration for Gaza.去年11月，联合国安理会投票通过了一项决议，支持美国总统唐纳德·特朗普的和平计划，并设立和平委员会作为加沙的过渡管理机构。According to Ahmad, the same principle would apply to a US-Iran agreement. Once a comprehensive and conclusive final deal is agreed, it would be brought to the UN Security Council for approval and for the establishment of a mechanism to oversee its implementation, he said.据艾哈迈德称，同样的原则也适用于美伊协议。他表示，一旦达成全面和最终的协议，将提交联合国安理会批准，并建立监督机制以确保协议执行。"The role of the Security Council as the principal organ for maintaining international peace and security remains important," he said.“安理会作为维护国际和平与安全的主要机构，其作用仍然重要，”他说。Long-running conflicts around the world also continue to test the UN's ability to prevent and resolve crises.世界各地的长期冲突也在持续考验联合国预防和解决危机的能力。Ahmad said that resolving these long-running conflicts requires "a comprehensive approach from conflict prevention to resolution", including UN peacekeeping.艾哈迈德表示，解决这些长期冲突需要“从预防冲突到解决冲突的全面方法”，包括联合国维和行动。There is a strong view among the wider UN membership that peace and security cannot be considered separately from development, he said.他表示，联合国广大会员国中有一种强烈观点认为，和平与安全不能与发展分开考虑。For developing countries, Ahmad added, the UN should focus on prioritizing the concerns and interests of those countries.艾哈迈德补充说，对发展中国家而言，联合国应优先关注这些国家的关切和利益。"As part of the reform and improving efficiencies, we want to ensure that the UN will continue to prioritize the concerns and the interests of developing countries," he said. "That means both peace and security, addressing the conflicts and advancing the development objectives."“作为改革和提高效率的一部分，我们希望确保联合国将继续优先考虑发展中国家的关切和利益，”他说。“这意味着和平与安全、解决冲突和推进发展目标。”conclusive /kənˈkluːsɪv/最终的comprehensive /ˌkɒmprɪˈhensɪv/全面的in flux /ɪn flʌks/在变化中alignment /əˈlaɪnmənt/联盟expedited /ˈekspədaɪtɪd/加速的prolonged /prəˈlɒŋd/长期的sidelined /ˈsaɪdlaɪnd/被边缘化的undermined /ˌʌndəˈmaɪnd/被削弱stamp of authority /stæmp əv ɔːˈθɒr

What do you get when two 22-year-olds with almost no money decide that the canals of Southern California need gondolas? In the case of David F. Black and his friend Mike O'Toole, you get a leaky Pakistani fishing boat, an old lifeguard dory, plenty of people convinced the idea will never work, and eventually one of the most unusual Italian-inspired businesses in America. More than four decades later, gondolas are still gliding through the canals of Naples Island in Long Beach, California.

Gaius and Germanicus: On a rainy late summer night in 92 AD Londinium, the hosts convene in their newly expanded wine bar by the River Thames, built so retired centurions of the eighth legion—such as Strabo, who served twenty-seven years—can rest and put their feet up. Gaius apologizes for his tardiness, delayed by a commercial dispute with a Gaulishmerchant demanding extra money for a shipment of Greek wine brought across the choppy English Channel; a poor bargainer, Gaius resolves to pay whatever it takes to secure the wine for the centurions by Sunday, and shares his day planting fragrant sumacs and tall purple-flowered ironweeds as pollinators. From this first-century frame, the hosts turn to the collapse of American strategy: the Persian Empire (modern Iran) no longer fears the American "imperator," as shown by Iran inviting Iraq—a country generously supported by the United States for years—to ship at least five backed-up tankers of oil through the Strait of Hormuzuntouched, and by Pakistani army chief General Munir's travel to Tehran to meet the IRGC. Russia and China are in constant communication with Iran; Germanicus traces Russia's interest to the nineteenth century, the 1908 spheres-of-influence division, and the 1942 invasion, arguing the American "feckless war" has stitched the Eurasian continent together and frozen the US out. Where the post-9/11 US "bestrode the Middle East like a colossus" and Iran sought breathing room through the JCPOA, now Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan court Tehran, the Gulf states seek accommodations in the new order, and the US has been reduced to nothing more than Israel's direct defender.

This week on Sinica, I sit down with the writer Pallavi Aiyar — at her own dining table in Beijing, where in recent months I've been the lucky beneficiary of her and her husband Julio's legendary hospitality. Pallavi first arrived in Beijing in 2002 to teach at the Beijing Broadcasting Institute and went on to spend the better part of a decade as The Hindu's China correspondent — for much of that time, the only Chinese-speaking Indian foreign correspondent in the country. That period produced Smoke and Mirrors: An Experience of China, still one of the very few sustained attempts to look at China through Indian eyes. After 16 years away — years spent in Brussels, Jakarta, Tokyo, and Madrid — she's back in Beijing, and turning her gaze inward with her latest book, Travels in the Other Place: Pursuing the Self in Eight Acts. She writes the wonderful Substack The Global Jigsaw, which I recommend without reservation.Our conversation is built around her recent essay for Noema Magazine, “The Real Problem Underlying India-China Tensions,” which argues that the deepest problem in the relationship isn't the border or the trade imbalance but the distorting lenses through which each side reads the other: China reads India through the lens of colonial subordination, while India reads China through the lens of betrayal. We talk about the ugly etymology of an ethnic slur, the partial historical memories each country mistakes for the whole picture, her serialized interviews with the Chinese India-watcher Mao Keji, the aporia-inducing impossibility of explaining either country to outsiders — and how her answer to the question she first posed in 2008, “Would I rather be born Indian or Chinese?”, has changed, painfully, in the years since.4:35 – Beijing, 2002: an ad in That's Beijing, gandhi@hotmail.com, and becoming The Hindu's correspondent10:03 – “Beijing and I grew up together”: the aughts as a shared coming-of-age12:16 – The asymmetry of obsession: why India watches China, but not the reverse16:39 – The unacknowledged third vertex: Western discursive power in the India-China relationship18:08 – Back after 16 years: the Liangma River, blue skies, and the panopticon21:35 – Walks in the park and the “buddy system”: what access looks like now25:43 – Where did all the foreigners go?29:59 – The scene at CCG: candor, offense, and the register of truth33:10 – “Asan”: the etymology of a slur, Sikh policemen, opium fortunes, and China's colonial lens40:10 – 1962 and India's betrayal lens42:15 – Aporia: the foolhardy task of explaining India or China47:22 – Shame and indignation: explaining a place you love versus a place you merely know52:29 – The big question, 2008: born Indian or Chinese?55:44 – The 2026 answer: “It hurts”1:00:08 – Kaiser pushes back: cherry-picked comparisons, and can this essay's very existence complicate its conclusions?1:04:43 – Twin nations of the exam1:06:57 – Cognitive empathy: what it would take for ordinary Indians and Chinese to actually see each otherPaying It ForwardYaqi Li, a young Chinese international relations scholar recently returned to China after a year in Singapore — Pallavi admires the rare self-reflectiveness of his memoir-inflected IR writing on his Substack, New China Literacy, and notes that he makes an interesting case for AI-assisted writing as a way for second- and third-language English speakers to find their voice.RecommendationsPallavi: Flashlight by Susan Choi — a novel spanning Japan, the U.S., and North Korea, built around the North Korean abductions of Japanese citizens in the 1970s. Also This Is Where the Serpent Lives by Daniyal Mueenuddin — the first novel from her favorite Pakistani writer, a sprawling, Chekhovian portrait of feudalism and politics in modern Pakistan.Kaiser: Crossing to Safety by Wallace Stegner — beautiful at the sentence level, painted on a small canvas: two couples who meet as young academics at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, and their friendship across the decades. Emotionally rich despite the absence of grand drama.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Scroll any news feed and convince me otherwise. Without even knowing what the other side, US, looks like, all you need to do is judge Leftism on its own merits. I saw a video of a man, dressed like a baby with a pacifier in his mouth, and he calls himself an “age regressor” [X] SB – Age regressor man He wants somebody to take care of him 24/7 for the rest of his life. I couldn't make this up if I were on LSD and given 3 more lifetimes. And this is what the Left considers to be normal.  How are these freaks created? Pakistan lawman in TX Mr. Ali Sheikhani himself.... Born in Pakistan. Came here on a student visa. Built a fortune. Now drives a Rolls-Royce to a Texas police station as an elected Republican lawman. When he's not hosting Pakistani dignitaries - including the head of the Pakistani Consulate - inside an American law-enforcement office… He's back in Karachi living like a Bollywood movie star. Throwing stacks of cash into the crowds. Making it rain U.S. dollars!  Cameras rolling. Fans cheering. Cash flying. (No women, of course; that would be haram) This is the man Texas voters put in charge of a police precinct. Can we keep Pakistan out of our police force? How is this even allowed! Muslim judge, dual justice This is Judge Amjad Nawaz.  He allowed a 70-year-old muslim to walk free after sexually assaulting a 12-year-old girl. In 2016, he did the same with a similar case involving a muslim.  Yet, in the same year, he gave a white man 8yrs for rape. This is clear corruption Kevin Jackson has been called, the "white-collar" Joe Rogan. Given their similar backgrounds in TV, comedy, and martial arts, it's easy to see why people enjoy Kevin's show so much. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This attempt forced quick action from the secret service, creating one of the most bizarre presidential stories we've seen in a long time.  This comes as U.S. officials warn of a major vulnerability in the U.S. water supply, a vulnerability Iran may be taking advantage of in major cyber attacks.

Russia says a Ukrainian drone has killed seven people, including three children, on a beach near the Russian Black Sea resort of Gelendzhik. The regional governor accused Ukraine of a deliberate strike on civilians, while Russia's foreign ministry called it an act of terrorism. There was no immediate comment from Ukraine. Both countries have always denied deliberately targeting civilians. Also: Iran insists no peace talks are happening, but Donald Trump insists they are; meanwhile another cargo vessel is reportedly struck in the Strait of Hormuz. We have an exclusive BBC report from Pakistani-administered Kashmir, where deadly clashes with protestors have been taking place.

Ross Schneiderman spent his career as a reporter and editor. Newsweek, The New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, ESPN. He covered mixed martial arts, then ran a foreign desk working alongside Afghan and Pakistani correspondents. In 2016 he wrote a Newsweek cover story about Mohammad Gulab, the Afghan villager who sheltered Marcus Luttrell. He never went to Afghanistan. He never covered a war. He spent six years piecing this one together anyway. For twenty years, Operation Red Wings has been told one way. Lone Survivor turned it into a legend. He FOIA'd the documents. He read the MERC chat, the debriefs, the after-action reports. He interviewed SEALs, Green Berets, and Afghan sources who were there. What he found doesn't match the movie. We go through it in order. The comms that were supposedly never made, and the records that say otherwise. The vote that never happened. The phone call, and who really made it. The stinger missile that wasn't. And why a story meant to honor four men became a recruiting tool built on things that weren't true. This isn't about tearing anyone down. Many men died doing the best they could in a terrible spot and situation. This is about what happens when an institution picks the myth over the truth.
