Podcast appearances and mentions of Saul David

This week Roger Moorhouse and Saul David analyse a week of potential shifts in the conflict. On the frontline: Ukrainian civilians evacuate Kupiansk as security deteriorates; a UN humanitarian convoy is deliberately attacked in Kherson; and a strike hits a Kharkiv hospital. Ukraine continues hitting back, targeting the Feodosia oil terminal in Crimea amidst a potential chemical threat from a ruptured ammonia pipeline. In the diplomatic sphere, Donald Trump rattles the Kremlin by suggesting he might send Tomahawk cruise missiles to Ukraine, prompting intense Russian warnings. Meanwhile, signs of Putin's diplomatic discomfort appear as he is forced to apologize to Azerbaijan, and early whispers of internal dissent surface in Russia's major cities.

Welcome to the first episode of our new Wolfpack series with Saul David and Roger Moorhouse diving into the intriguing origins and early, devastating success of Nazi Germany's U-boat campaign in the Atlantic. This foundational episode unpacks how naval limitations imposed by the Treaty of Versailles failed to stop German rearmament and secretly fostered the development of submarine warfare doctrine. They also explore Admiral Karl Dönitz's desperate strategic vision—the famed "wolfpack" tactics—and how a small fleet initially achieved spectacular results. From the shocking sinking of the civilian liner SS Athenia immediately after the declaration of war, to the "First Happy Time," a period where U-boat crews operated with lethal impunity, nearly crippling Britain's supply lines and setting the stage for the true Battle of the Atlantic.

This week on Battleground, Saul David and Roger Moorhouse dissect a week of Russian provocation and a dramatic political shift from the US President. Is Putin's aggressive brinkmanship about to backfire? After three MiG-31 jets violated Estonian airspace and a major drone incursion grounded flights at Copenhagen Airport, NATO allies are drawing a line in the sand. The hosts break down the fallout from Estonia invoking Article 4, the emergency UN Security Council session, and the stark pledge from the Polish foreign minister to shoot down future invaders of NATO skies. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump executes a stunning U-turn, branding Russia a 'paper tiger' and urging Ukraine to reclaim all its lost territory—a complete reversal of his previous calls for territorial concession. Also in this episode: Kremlin Nepotism: We examine reports that an increasingly paranoid Putin has appointed his cousin, Anna Tsivileva, as a deputy defence minister to root out corruption and disloyalty in the defence ministry.

On 17 November 1943 Allied troops began their campaign against the Germans and Italians in the Tunisian campaign, in the last effort to push the Axis out of North  Africa, and open the way to Sicily and Italy, and,  as you heard from the Winston Churchill quote at the top, meaning Germany would be surrounded in the last 18 months of the war.

This week on Battleground, Saul David and Patrick Bishop analyse why recent diplomatic summits have failed to move the needle on peace in Ukraine. They also discuss two surprising developments: new details about a potential US security commitment to a post-war Ukraine, and the US imposition of heavy tariffs on India to punish it for buying Russian oil. With the tariffs already devastating key Indian industries. On the ground, a Russian breakthrough near Dobropillya has been contained, but new reports confirm a Russian advance into the Dnipropetrovsk region. Meanwhile, Ukraine continues to hit Russian targets with long-range drone strikes and has unveiled a new, powerful cruise missile, the "Flamingo FP-5," with a 3,000 km range. Finally, in a new segment with the Centre for Information Resilience, the hosts report that Russian drone activity has effectively cut off a key highway, raising fears of a "drone siege" on the city of Kherson.

Ämnet för dagen är ett kort och dramatiskt kavallerianfall under krimkriget 1854. Det har förekommit många kavallerianfall i historien, så varför ska just detta avhandlas kanske någon undrar?

Att få en handfull så oerhört inkompatibla och självcentrerade officerare på plats i ett system som premierade snorkighet, stolthet och amatörism ledde till missförstånd på nivå av, apropå stjärnor, astronomiska dimensioner.

Generations with Kevin Swanson

With each find, archeology only further substantiates biblical history.  We share some of the most exciting archeological discoveries and demonstrate their correlation with Scripture in this new segment. What are the intersections between Egypt and David, Solomon, and Jeroboam?  Where do we find David winning key battles against the Syrians, only to lose ground under Ahab and others? Christians are often lost in the history of the Kings and Chronicles. This segment will help straighten out misconceptions and clarify ancient middle eastern history from 1100 BC to 700 BC.This program includes:1.

On 6 June 1944, the Allies began their long-awaited invasion of Nazi-occupied Europe. By the end of the day, more than 150,000 men had landed in northern France, ready to start pushing further inland. But how had this immense undertaking been planned? And how long was it before they achieved their first objective?
