Podcasts about Nepal

Tommy & Ben start with Gaza: the UN Human Rights Council's finding that Israel has committed genocide, and Israel's ground operation into Gaza City. They discuss how Marco Rubio signaled that Trump has given up on brokering a peace deal in Gaza, and why the Netanyahu government is telling the press that Trump is lying about his knowledge of the IDF airstrike in Qatar. Also covered: Kash Patel's combative Senate hearing about the rampant dysfunction at the FBI, the global reaction to the murder of Charlie Kirk and the dark conspiracy theories that have emerged around it, the long-term harm to the US-South Korea relationship caused by the ICE raid on a Hyundai plant in Georgia, Nepal's democracy by Discord, Trump's UK state visit amid Jeffrey Epstein fallout and far-right protests, Trump's ultimatums to NATO, and Conor McGregor's aborted bid for the Irish presidency. Then, Tommy speaks to Tom Fletcher, the UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator, about the humanitarian situations in Haiti, Sudan, and Gaza, the devastating effects of the gutting of USAID, and what's giving him hope right now.

It's Tuesday, September 16th, A.D. 2025. 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 Pakistani flood claims 900 lives Floods in Pakistan have taken the lives of 900 people. Plus, over two million people have been displaced and 1,600 villages destroyed. The British Christian Asian Association is on the ground helping Christian communities in Pakistan now.  Make a donation through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com.  Indicate in the box at the bottom of the linked page that your donation is to help the Pakistani flood victims. Trump compared Brazilian witch hunt of Bolsonaro to his trials As The Worldview reported on September 12th, Brazil's previous president, Jair Bolsonaro, was convicted of trying to overturn the 2022 election, and sentenced to 27 years in prison for it. U.S. President Donald Trump responded by comparing the ordeal with his own in 2020. He said, “I thought he was a good president of Brazil, and it's very surprising that could happen very much like they tried to do with me, but they didn't get away with it at all.” The Wall Street Journal featured a column by Mary O'Grady declaring that Brazil's courts have been turned to Lawfare — the use of the judicial system to achieve political ends.  Nepal's revolution leaves 51 dead and with new Prime Minister The nation of Nepal has been caught in a maelstrom of revolution for the past week, leaving 51 people dead, government buildings destroyed, and supermarkets and politician's homes burned to the ground, reports the BBC. The revolution was largely instigated by Gen Z, 18 to 24-year-old college-aged youth, after a social media ban. Nepal's prime minister resigned, and another was appointed — the first woman leader of the Himalayan country. The nation is relying upon Sushila Karki to restore stability.  She has promised $11,330 for each family where a protester was killed in the melee.   Similar youth-driven revolutions occurred in Sri Lanka in 2022 and Bangladesh in 2024, overturning these national governments as well. Isaiah 3:12 speaks of the instability of nations in similar terms. It says, “As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.” The nations of the world which have appointed or elected the most female leaders since 1946 are Finland, India, New Zealand, and England. The average number of nations led by female heads hovered around 6 in the 1990s and early 2000s. Today, the average has increased to 15 female leaders.  Utah Gov.: Kirk's murderer was “deeply indoctrinated with leftist ideology” Utah Republican Governor Spencer Cox has announced on CNN's State of the Union that official charges will be filed today against Charlie Kirk's alleged assassin, Tyler Robinson. The governor also said, “The FBI has confirmed that [Robinson's] roommate was a romantic partner, a male transitioning to female.”  Cox added that evidence from family and friends is pointing to the fact that the alleged murderer had been “deeply indoctrinated with leftist ideology.” Romans 1:28 and 29 speaks of the progression of evil: “And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder.” Tyler Robinson's trans roommate “hates conservatives and Christians” Fox News has also reported that Robinson's 22-year-old “trans roommate” "hates conservatives and Christians.” That according to an interview with a relative on Fox. The woman, who asked to remain anonymous, told Fox News Digital her relative began to act differently when he turned 18 and said that he developed a hatred of Christians and conservatives. She explained that “He hated us. He was not raised that way, but he, over the years, has become really detached [and] been radicalized. … He has obviously gotten progressively worse the last year or two.” Transgenderism on the rise Transgenderism has increased across the United States — with 1.6% of American adults claiming to be such. That's four million Americans!   Pew Research estimates that 44% of Americans know somebody who is attempting to appear to change their own gender. The Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland attempted the first gender mutilations back in 1966. The program was shut down in 1979. Then again, in 1997, the practice was reinstated by a Dr. Stanley Biber in Trinidad, Colorado. Biber's clinic became the gender mutilation capital of the country until the surgeon's retirement in 2003. These are the roots of the movement in America. Gold and stocks hit new highs Gold is reaching for new highs — scraping $3,670 per ounce on Monday. Silver reached $42.60 per ounce. That's up 41% and 38% respectively over the previous year. Stocks are up similarly. The NASDAQ reached 22,340 points yesterday, a 27% increase over last year. Meanwhile, the median house selling price has dropped a total of 7% since late 2022. Teen reels in 177-pound Halibut And finally, 13-year-old Jackson Denio of New Hampshire reeled in a 177-pound Atlantic Halibut  off the New England coast last week. That could be a world record for a youth catch. After wrestling with the fish for a half an hour on the line, it took three men to get the monster in the boat. DENIO: “It took the three deckhands and the captain to get it in the boat, and then, once it was in the boat, everybody was just yelling and cheering. FRIEND: “Jackson! Whoo!” The largest halibut on record weighed 515 pounds, caught in Alaska in 1996.  Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, September 16th, in the year of our Lord 2025. 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.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

Tom shares his experiences documenting the birth of a black rhino, a feat never before captured on film. We also explore the complex and often perilous efforts of anti-poaching rangers in Kenya, the socioeconomic factors driving poaching, and the resilience of the wildlife conservation community. Tom's journey from filming human conflict zones to capturing rare wildlife moments showcases the intertwined struggles for survival, both human and animal. Tom's first appearance on H-Hour was on #101 https://charliecharlieone.com/2020/09/h-hour-podcast-101-tom-martienssen-journalist-documentary-maker-raf-regiment/ Tom Martienssen is an Emmy-winning documentary filmmaker and cinematographer who has worked in over 50 countries and territories, including Afghanistan, the Arctic, the Himalayas, and the Pacific Islands.

He later trained at the BBC Academy and worked as a journalist for the BBC World Affairs Unit before focusing on cinematography. Martienssen has covered major global events, including surviving and reporting on the 2015 earthquake in Nepal and working undercover in the Middle East to report on ISIS. He is currently directing and shooting four documentaries, focusing on conservation in Nigeria, poaching in Kenya, culture in global Indigenous communities, and high Arctic exploration. He collaborates on his projects with Diamond Docs and the BBC. One of his upcoming films, Rhino (2025), is a documentary about a wildlife ranger protecting endangered black rhinos in Kenya.

I spoke to a law student in Kathmandu who had been part of the Nepal protest. He suggested that the so-called Gen Z protest was not only about Gen Z, and that there were many unknown forces behind it. We discuss how the protest was made, how it was organised, who gained, the future it points to, and the contradictions buried in what the media so casually labelled a Gen Z revolt. There is far more going on here. Watch here, and support us for making more of these conversations possible.1. Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/anuragminusverma 2.

Send us a textIn Monday's Kathmandu Post I read short bios of two of the 19 protesters killed by police in the GenZ demonstration one week ago. Both were from Nepal's Far West — Deepak Singh Saud was from Baitadi district, Subas Bohara from Bajhang. Deepak was 18, Subas 21.I send my condolences to their loved ones. As you probably know by now, the protest was about much more than the recent Nepal Government ban on social media. It was an explosion of frustration at how the political class has been running this nation for decades, longer than many protesters had been alive. And for a lot of those disaffected young people, the fact that they had to leave their country in order to find a job or continue their studies was a slap in the face, a symptom of all that was wrong with Nepal.In fact, both Deepak and Subas had been learning a foreign language so they could go abroad and get the sort of job they felt they needed to earn a decent living — Subas to Japan, Deepak to South Korea. I think there's a good chance that other victims had also considered leaving Nepal.I've been looking into migration and Nepal long enough to know that, despite the horror stories — and there are many — it does have benefits. Individuals can earn much more money than at home. They can pick up skills and women in particular can grow in confidence as they navigate a new society more independently than they would in Nepal. The country of course is a winner thanks to the money that migrants send home — at least a quarter of Nepal's overall income these days, one of the highest rates of the world's labour sending countries. But overall, to me nothing shows more plainly the failure of the entrenched leaders of the political parties than the hundreds of thousands of young people who every year feel that they have no option but to leave their country and loved ones to try and launch themselves into their adult lives in a strange land. I really really hope that in this new Nepal young people will feel like they have a choice — to leave, or to stay; a real choice, one whose pros and cons need to be carefully weighed before deciding. It will definitely take time to get there but last week a door opened that could lead in that direction, unfortunately not without unforgettable sacrifices.ResourcesKathmandu Post article about Deepak Singh SaudPost article about Subas BoharaDetailed article about the GenZ andolan by Pranaya RanaSupport the showHelp steer the future of Nepal Now as it moves to Canada in October 2025.

Three years ago, mainstream newspapers in the West had a bit of fun ridiculing so-called nepo-babies, and the unfair advantage enjoyed by the children of the rich and the powerful, like Gwyneth Paltrow's daughter, Apple, or Lenny Kravitz’s daughter, Zoe.But in Nepal, nepobabies are no joking matter.They have just, in part, sparked the most widespread social unrest that the nation has seen in recent years.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover the arrest of Charlie Kirk's assassin and the ideological forces behind the murder, plus global updates from Iran, Israel, Ukraine, Poland, and Nepal. From the tragedy in Utah to AI choosing world leaders, today's brief brings the facts you need to understand America's crossroads at home and abroad.   Charlie Kirk Assassin Arrested: Utah officials confirmed 22-year-old Tyler Robinson confessed to family and friends after FBI photos, his car, and his leftist ideology tied him to the crime. His boyfriend, Lance “Luna” Twiggs, is cooperating with investigators, raising questions about extremist networks in Utah. Erika Kirk vowed Turning Point USA will continue, declaring, “You have no idea the fire that you have ignited within this wife… We will never surrender.” Polls now show 24% of very liberal Democrats say they take joy in political killings - 20% are unsure if they should.   Political Divide Over Violence: Republicans launch a special committee to probe leftist violence, while Democrats dismiss ideology as a motive. Senator Brian Schatz argued, “What f'ing difference does it make if this murderer was left or right.” Utah's Governor Cox blamed the internet, while Illinois' Governor Pritzker pointed at Trump. Bryan warns, “We live in a revolution. Their revolution. And if you disagree with them, you're to be targeted.”   Iran's Nuclear Program Weakened but Not Dead: Israeli intel confirms Trump's strikes crippled Tehran's enrichment capacity for years, though knowledge and equipment remain. Israel's defenses, however, are drained and need time to recover, meaning future operations will likely be covert.   Israel Rules Out Palestinian State: Prime Minister Netanyahu announced, “There will never be a Palestinian state. This place is ours.” Trump's administration is weighing a U.S.-run Gaza plan that would pay Palestinians to leave, though it has already been rejected by Arab powers.   Russian Drones Probe NATO Airspace: Dozens of Russian drones crossed into Poland and Romania, triggering NATO alerts. Trump suggested it was a mistake, but Poland's president insisted, “We know it wasn't.” Zelenskyy pressed NATO to shoot intruding drones down next time.   AI Picks New Leaders in Nepal and Beyond: After protests toppled Nepal's communist PM, students asked ChatGPT to name a successor. The AI chose former Chief Justice Sushila Karki, now sworn in as interim prime minister. Asked who should lead America, ChatGPT named Michelle Obama and Cory Booker, dismissing JD Vance as “too polarizing.” Bryan warns, “Seems like something we should watch… since AI is choosing our leaders now.”   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Charlie Kirk assassination arrest Tyler Robinson, Lance Luna Twiggs trans extremist, Erika Kirk Turning Point vow, YouGov poll political violence Democrats, Senator Brian Schatz internet quote, Governor Spencer Cox internet blame, Governor JB Pritzker Trump blame, Iran nuclear program Israeli intel, Netanyahu no Palestinian state quote, Trump Gaza US-run plan, Russian drones Poland Romania NATO, Zelenskyy NATO shoot down drones, Nepal protests ChatGPT prime minister Sushila Karki, ChatGPT Michelle Obama Cory Booker JD Vance AI bias

Today's Headlines: The manhunt in Utah is over — 22-year-old Tyler Robinson confessed to killing Charlie Kirk after admitting it to his father and minister, who turned him in. Investigators haven't nailed down a motive, though his transgender roommate (and alleged former partner) told police Robinson thought Kirk's anti-trans rhetoric was hateful. That roommate has been cooperating, handing over texts that led police to the hidden rifle. Formal charges are expected tomorrow. Meanwhile, Congress is debating everything from Kirk lying in state at the Capitol to criminalizing jokes about his death, while FBI Director Kash Patel made headlines for tweeting bad info about the case… from a prime table at Rao's. Elsewhere: Maryland and Michigan officials got bomb threats (one credible, since cleared), Trump backed off sending the National Guard to Chicago but is pushing troops into Memphis, and Fox host Brian Kilmeade apologized for suggesting homeless people be killed by lethal injection. In Brazil, lawmakers are floating amnesty for ex-president Bolsonaro after his coup conviction — a move drawing sharp rebukes from Brazil and open threats from Trump and Marco Rubio. Trump also tried tying new Russia sanctions to NATO-wide tariffs on China. Across the pond, over 100,000 people joined a far-right rally in London, complete with Elon Musk ranting about wokeness, while Nepal's revolutionaries literally elected a new prime minister on Discord. Not to be left out, Albania's Prime MInister just appointed an AI “minister” named Diella to fight corruption as part of its EU membership bid.

The assassination of Charlie Kirk marks more than a shocking act of political violence - it is a symptom of America's accelerating era of violent populism, and it will continue to escalate without intervention. That's according to Robert Pape, one of the world's foremost experts on political violence, terrorism, and national security and director of the Chicago Project on Security and Threats.Roland speaks to Pape about what next after Kirk's murder, the deeper forces driving America's unrest and what lessons other countries in the West should take from it. Plus, Venetia speaks to The Telegraph's Samaan Lateef about the historic protests in Nepal and how Gen Z demonstrators overturned a government by using new online technology such as Discord and Chat GPT.https://linktr.ee/BattleLinesContact us with feedback or ideas:battlelines@telegraph.co.uk@venetiarainey@RolandOliphant Hosted on Acast.

This is an excerpt from my podcast This Week in Geopolitics. I record new episodes every Monday so give me a follow if you would like to see more!

In today's episode we talk about, The assassination of Charlie Kirk and how his death has impacted America. Then we go over the conditions President Trump set for imposing sanctions on Russia and how they amount to him scamming Europe. After that we briefly talk about the Gen-Z revolt in Nepal. And finally we'll go over the ‘Block Everything' movement in France and what may happen to the country when the looming financial crisis hits. All that and more!

Un gravísimo estallido social ha convulsionado Nepal en los últimos días. Las protestas, protagonizadas por los más jóvenes en lo que se ha denominado la ‘Revolución Z', se han saldado por el momento con 72 muertos y más de 200 heridos graves en apenas seis días. Este es el balance que ha ofrecido el gobierno interino de un país sumido en el caos, donde la juventud ha clamado contra la corrupción endémica en un clima económico desolador, con más de un 20% de paro juvenil y una renta per cápita que no supera los 1.300 dólares al año, tal y como han analizado Alberto Herrera y Ana Velasco en la sección ‘Curiosidades de la Historia' del programa ‘Herrera en COPE'.La oleada de protestas, que ha tenido lugar en septiembre de 2025, ha encontrado su catalizador en el veto a las redes sociales por parte del anterior gobierno. Sin embargo, el descontento venía de lejos. La mayor parte de los casi 30 millones de habitantes de Nepal tiene menos de 25 años y siente que no tiene futuro. ...

Ralph welcomes Timothy Whitehouse, executive director of Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER) to speak about how federal workers across all government agencies are being unfairly denigrated and summarily fired by the Trump Administration to clear the way for corporate corruption. Plus, we are joined by Toby Heaps, Editor-in-Chief of “Corporate Knights” magazine to talk about the benefits of the cooperative business model over the corporate shareholder model.Timothy Whitehouse is executive director of Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER). Prior to joining PEER, he was a senior attorney at the Environmental Protection Agency and was head of the Law and Policy Program at the North American Commission for Environmental Cooperation in Montreal.The time to stigmatize federal workers is over. It's time to start rallying for unions for federal workers and what they do, and to support the idea that government plays an important role and that government (the civil service) must be as non-political as possible. Our country will be much better for it.Timothy WhitehouseThat's a good way to describe it: supersonic. We knew things were going to be really bad, but they are much worse than bad because there's no check and no balance on this President's madness. And some of the people and institutions we had hoped would stand up a little bit are collapsing one by one.Timothy WhitehouseOur foreign enemies could not have devised a better way to grind our system to a halt, and that's what's happening.Timothy WhitehouseToby Heaps is the CEO and co-founder of Corporate Knights, and Editor-in-Chief of Corporate Knights magazine. He spearheaded the first global ranking of the world's 100 most sustainable corporations in 2005, and in 2007 coined the term “clean capitalism.” Toby has been published in the Financial Times, Wall Street Journal, and the Globe and Mail, and is a regular guest speaker on CBC.I think in the co-op movement, the biggest bugaboo holding it back (in North America, that is) is people's perception that it's not a significant force. And it is already a significant force. In many cases, we're not familiar that the company might be a co-op (such as Associated Press or Ocean Spray) but in the United States alone, the turnover of co-op enterprises sales in 2023 was $324 billion US. And so, it's a significant part of the economy already.Toby HeapsI can't underline enough that if you care about a sustainable economy that works for people and planet, that the operating model is not just the clean economy (the environmentally friendly economy), it's the cooperatively-run economy.Toby HeapsThe principal obstacle to co-ops is the inadequate engagement of consumers to know about the huge benefits— to control the local economy from multinational corporations (absentee), who are pulling strings in ways that are very damaging, and basically to assume the purchasing power of the consumer.Ralph NaderNews 9/12/2025* Several major stories surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein case have emerged in the past week. First, Democrats on the House Oversight Committee have released a note written by President Trump to Epstein included in the latter's “birthday book” from 2003. In this note, Trump refers to Epstein as his “pal” and writes “May every day be another wonderful secret," according to Reuters. Trump has denied that this letter even existed, going so far as to sue the Wall Street Journal for defamation over their reporting in July. Trump continues to deny that he wrote the letter, though his signature is a perfect match, and he has sought to tamp down the matter, calling it a “dead issue,” per NBC.* In Congress, Republican allies of Donald Trump are seeking to quash the Epstein issue as well. On Tuesday, Republicans on the House Rules Committee “shot down a bid to put the Epstein Files Transparency Act—which would compel the Justice Department to release all unclassified records related to Jeffrey Epstein—to a floor vote,” in an 8–4 party-line vote, the New Republic reports. However, despite this setback, dissident Republican Thomas Massie continues to press the issue. Speaking about the birthday note, Massie said “It's…indicative of the things that might come out if we were to release all of the files…embarrassing, but not indictable. And I don't think avoiding embarrassment is a reason to avoid justice,” per CNN. Massie added in an interview on ABC that "I think it's going to be embarrassing to some of the billionaires, some of the donors who are politically connected to [Trump's] campaign. There are probably intelligence ties to our CIA and maybe to other foreign intelligence." Democrat Ro Khanna insisted in this same interview that he and his allies, including Massie, will be able to pull together a House majority of 218 members to force a vote on releasing the files.* Our final Epstein story for the week concerns James O'Keefe. Former leader of Project Veritas, O'Keefe continues to carry out far-right hidden-camera sting operations. In a rare move targeting conservatives, O'Keefe engineered a date between Joseph Schnitt, a deputy chief of staff at the Office of Enforcement Operations at DOJ, and an operative in his employ wherein Schnitt admitted that the Trump administration will “redact every Republican or conservative person in those files, [and] leave all the liberal, Democratic people.” In this video, Schnitt also implies that Epstein's lieutenant, Ghislaine Maxwell was relocated to a lower security prison to “keep her mouth shut,” as part of a deal with the government. This according to the Hill. One should certainly take revelations from O'Keefe with a heavy dose of salt, but these troubling comments should also raise suspicions about the government's possible plans to manipulate information related to this case for political ends.* Aside from the Epstein affair, the Trump administration continues to issue destructive policy directives in all directions. AP reports the federal Department of Transportation has scrapped a Biden-era rule that required airlines to “compensate stranded passengers with cash, lodging and meals for flight cancellations or changes caused by a carrier.” This rule, which sought “compensation starting at $200…[and] as high as $775…for delays of nine hours or more,” was consistent with European aviation consumer protections. Unsurprisingly, airlines – represented by lobbyists in the employ of the industry trade group Airlines for America – bitterly resisted the rule and celebrated the administration's abandonment of this basic consumer protection. The Biden Transportation Department had also been weighing rules that would have required airlines to provide, “free rebooking on the next available flight, including flights on rival airlines, as well as meals and lodging when passengers are stranded overnight.”* At the same time, the Trump administration's Federal Trade Commission is abandoning its rules banning noncompete clauses for employees. An eye-popping 1 in 5 workers are bound by noncompetes, approximately 30 million Americans, and experts estimated that banning such clauses could boost wages to the tune of nearly $300 billion per year and help create 8,500 new businesses, per NPR. The FTC voted 3-1 to vacate its defense of the rule, with Chair Andrew Ferguson and Melissa Holyoak, both Republicans, issuing a joint statement. Rebecca Kelly Slaughter, the lone remaining Democrat on the commission after Trump purged the FTC earlier this year, voted no.* Turning to foreign affairs, the Guardian reports two ships in the Gaza aid flotilla have been struck by drone attacks while docked in Tunisia. The first struck the Family Boat, which carries activist Greta Thunberg, though she was not on board at the time. The second struck the Alma, a ship bearing British flags while docked in the port of Sidi Bou Said. In a video, one can see, “a luminous object hitting the boat and fire erupting on board.” Francesca Albanese, the UN special rapporteur for the occupied Palestinian territories, is quoted saying, ‘‘Authoritative sources suggest the attack involved an incendiary grenade, wrapped in plastic materials soaked in fuel, which may have ignited before even hitting the vessel.” These attacks come amidst a renewed Israeli bombing campaign against its neighbors, including bombing the Qatari capital of Doha and the Yemeni capital Sanaa. Trump says he is “very unhappy” about the strikes; Israel's ambassador to the United States however says the world will “get over it.” This from Al Jazeera.* Meanwhile, Drop Site is out with yet another bombshell report, this time on Israel's propaganda push to cover up the scale of the hunger crisis in Gaza. According to this report, the Netanyahu government signed a previously unreported $45 million deal with Google to push false propaganda through the massive platform. One video, viewed more than 6 million times, asserts “There is food in Gaza. Any other claim is a lie.” Israel also reportedly paid $3 million for an ad campaign on X, formerly Twitter, and another $2 million on a French platform called Outbrain. This report also cites other examples of Israeli propaganda campaigns in recent years, including against UNRWA and regarding the illegal strikes in Iran.* In more positive news, the pro-Palestine campaign in Hollywood continues to grow. This week, Variety reports a group of over 3,900 filmmakers, actors and other industry professionals signed a new pledge to boycott working with “Israeli film institutions and companies that are ‘implicated in genocide and apartheid against the Palestinian people.'” This group includes many household names, such as Mark Ruffalo, Joaquin Phoenix, Jonathan Glazer, Tilda Swinton, Javier Bardem, Emma Stone, Boots Riley, Ayo Edebiri, and many, many more. The list continues to grow as this pledge circulates. According to the Hollywood Reporter, this campaign is led by Film Workers for Palestine, which explicitly modeled their strategy after Filmmakers United Against Apartheid. That group, founded by eminent filmmakers like Martin Scorsese, demanded that the film industry refuse distribution in apartheid South Africa.* Beyond Israel/Palestine, events are rocking Nepal, the small Himalayan nation that lies between India and China. The BBC reports “Fierce protests against corruption and nepotism spiralled into arson and violence on Tuesday. The prime minister resigned as politicians' homes were vandalised, government buildings torched and parliament set ablaze. Twenty-nine people have died since Monday.” The "Gen Z" youth groups leading the protests have distanced themselves from these acts of destruction, claiming their movement was "hijacked" by "opportunists". Nepal's military has been deployed in the capital of Kathmandu in an attempt to restore order and enforce a curfew. The government of Nepal, led by now-ousted Prime Minister K.P. Sharma Oli, sought to cultivate a closer relationship with China to offset Nepal's historical dependence on India. For the time being, China seems to be taking a wait and see approach to the situation in Nepal, with foreign ministry spokesman Lin Jian calling for all parties to “properly handle domestic issues and restore social order and national stability as soon as possible,” per the South China Morning Post.* Finally, Democracy Now! reports that in an apparent fit of retaliation, the Trump administration is now threatening to redeport Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the American green card holder recently returned from his wrongful deportation to El Salvador's CECOT mega-prison. This time, instead of sending him to El Salvador, the government plans to send Garcia to the tiny African kingdom of Eswatini, formerly Swaziland. Garcia had previously expressed fear of being deported to Uganda. This move would surely be punitive, capricious and just plain bizarre, but that is hardly a deviation from the course of the Trump administration.
