Hamas and Israel appear closer than ever to a ceasefire, as both sides signal conditional acceptance of President Trump's peace proposal. Mystery drones spark panic in Europe, halting flights in Munich and triggering investigations at a Belgian military base. And in today's Back of the Brief—the U.S. Navy launches another strike off Venezuela, part of a broader campaign against Latin America's drug-trafficking networks.

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 Monday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, we cover violent new attacks on ICE agents in Chicago and Portland, Trump's plan to federalize National Guard units, the shutdown of apps used to track ICE officers, a cash offer to illegal immigrants, a shocking Virginia political scandal, and global updates from Greenland to Ukraine, the UK, Gaza, and Africa. Quick hits to launch your week with the facts shaping America and the world.   Violent Weekend on the Immigration Front: Radical activists in Chicago used phone apps to track ICE agents, boxed them in with ten cars, and rammed a federal vehicle. When the lead agitator, Marimar Martínez, brandished a gun, ICE agents fired back, lightly injuring her. Chicago police refused to assist, with supervisors citing sanctuary city laws. Trump responded by federalizing 300 Illinois National Guardsmen, saying, “If the governor won't protect federal officers, I will.”   Portland Judge Blocks Federal Guard Deployment: After months of violence and arson targeting federal buildings, Oregon's Judge Karin Immergut refused to let Trump deploy 200 Oregon Guardsmen. The White House will instead send California troops. City council member Angelita Morillo, an admitted Marxist, has been helping activists buy burner phones to coordinate attacks.   Apple and Google Drop Anti-ICE Apps: Following a Trump DOJ order, Apple and Google removed apps used to crowdsource ICE agent locations. Developers and activists called the move authoritarian, but DHS pointed to the weekend's attempted murder of ICE officers as proof the apps “facilitate organized violence, not free speech.”   Trump Expands “Pay to Leave” Immigration Program: Migrants aged 14 to 17 who entered illegally will now be offered $2,500 and a plane ticket home. Critics say the policy “coerces” children, but Trump argues it's cheaper and safer than detaining or deporting them. Reuters reports Guatemalan parents still refuse to take their kids back, preferring they keep working in the U.S.   Virginia Democrat Calls for Murder of GOP Speaker and Children: Attorney General candidate Jay Jones faces backlash for texting that Republican House Speaker Todd Gilbert and his two young children “should be shot.” Fellow Democrat Abigail Spanberger defended him, saying, “Let those without sin cast the first stone.” Bryan warns, “The Left is openly dehumanizing children now — what happens when words become policy?”   Greenland's Rare Earth Deal with the U.S.: The Trump administration is negotiating an investment partnership with Greenland's Critical Metals Corp to secure rare earth minerals and limit Chinese control. Bryan calls it “the front line of America's Mineral Wars.”   China Feeding Intel to Russia in Ukraine: Beijing is providing targeting data that includes U.S.-owned facilities, dragging out the conflict to drain American stockpiles.   UK Scandal Over Chinese Spies: British PM Keir Starmer quashed espionage charges against two Chinese-linked researchers by refusing to label China an “enemy.” Bryan warns it's time to “pull the plug on Five Eyes intel sharing” until the UK gets serious about national security.   Trump's Gaza Peace Plan and Netanyahu's Pressure: Envoy Steve Witcoff and Jared Kushner head to Cairo to finalize a deal requiring Hamas to disarm or face “complete obliteration.” Netanyahu faces backlash from his coalition, which could collapse if Hamas keeps any political power.   Nigeria's Christian Genocide Expands: Islamist militants from Boko Haram and ISIS killed hundreds in northern Nigeria, driving thousands into Cameroon. Bryan warns Biden's CIA may be indirectly aiding jihadists to attack Russian and Chinese targets.   Medical News — Parkinson's and Back Pain Relief: South Korean researchers linked tooth bacteria to Parkinson's risk, while a German cannabis extract eased chronic back pain. Bryan reminds listeners, “Keep brushing and walking — the mind and body are more connected than we realize.”   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Chicago ICE attack Marimar Martínez, Trump federalizes Illinois National Guard, Chicago police sanctuary policy, Portland Judge Karin Immergut National Guard, Angelita Morillo Marxist burner phones, Apple Google anti-ICE apps removed, Trump migrant cash offer $2,500, Jay Jones Virginia AG murder text, Abigail Spanberger rage fuel comments, Greenland rare earth minerals Critical Metals Corp, China intel to Russia Ukraine war, Keir Starmer Chinese spies case UK, Trump Gaza peace plan Hamas disarmament, Nigeria Christian genocide Boko Haram ISIS, Parkinson's oral bacteria South Korea, German cannabis chronic back pain

It's Monday, October 6, 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 Adam McManus Muslims decapitated or shot 30 Christians in Mozambique, Africa Over 30 Christians were beheaded in a series of recent attacks in northern Mozambique, Africa by Islamic State-affiliated terrorists who also released graphic photographs showing the executions, shootings, and widespread arson, reports The Christian Post. The group targeted multiple villages across Cabo Delgado and Nampula provinces, setting fire to churches and homes in a campaign of violence against civilians. According to The Middle East Media Research Institute, the Islamic State Mozambique group released a 20-image photoset this week, documenting its operatives executing civilians by beheading and close-range gunfire, and burning down homes and churches. The Mozambican insurgency, active since 2017, has led to the deaths of at least 6,200 people. In Deuteronomy 32:35, God says, “It is mine to avenge; I will repay. In due time, their foot will slip; their day of disaster is near, and their doom rushes upon them.” The United Nations estimates that more than 1 million people in northern Mozambique have been displaced since the conflict began, due to a combination of militant violence, prolonged drought and extreme weather events. Open Doors ranks Mozambique, Africa as the 37th most dangerous country worldwide for Christians. Nigerian Muslims killed kidnapped pastor after receiving ransom Armed Muslim groups in Kwara State, Nigeria killed a local pastor after abducting him and receiving ransom payments from his community, reports International Christian Concern. Rev. James Issa, a pastor with the Evangelical Church Winning All, was taken from Ekati village on August 28.  His abductors initially demanded $67,000. Weeks of negotiations followed, with family members, church leaders, and villagers contributing funds to secure his release.  The community raised $3,300, a sum far beyond the means of the rural community. The money was delivered to the kidnappers, but instead of releasing the pastor, the armed group demanded an additional $30,000. Before any further talks could take place, they killed Rev. Issa.  Netanyahu demands release of all 48 hostages in order to end war On Sunday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that no part of U.S. President Donald Trump's peace plan will be enacted until all 48 hostages, alive and dead, are returned to Israeli territory, reports The Jerusalem Post. Additionally, Netanyahu stated that if the hostages are not released by Trump's deadline, "Israel will resume fighting with full backing from all involved countries." However, speaking to Israeli journalist Barak Ravid, President Trump told Netanyahu, “Bibi, this is your chance for victory.”  Currently, there is no set deadline for the hostage release, although negotiations to finalize the plan are set to begin in Cairo, Egypt today. An anonymous source told the Jerusalem Post that (a) Hamas, the Muslim terrorist group, is committed to reaching an agreement to end the war in the Gaza Strip and (b) the release of the hostages will be carried out gradually over several days through the International Red Cross. Secretary of State Marco Rubio appeared on NBC's “Meet the Press” with Kristen Welker. WELKER: “I want to start with these peace negotiations in the Middle East. Is this now the end of the war in Gaza?” RUBIO: “Well, not yet. There's some work remains to be done, and I would view it in two phases, in terms of understanding how to break this out. “The first piece of it, which is very clear from the letter in Hamas' response, is they have agreed to the President's hostage release framework. And what needs to happen now, and they acknowledge in the letter in their response, is there now needs to be meetings which are occurring, even as I speak to you now, and hopefully will be finalized very quickly on the logistics of that. “What that means is, who goes in to get them? Is it the Red Cross? You know, when do they show up? What place are they going to be? And the conditions have to be created for that to happen. You can't have bombs going off and fighting going on in the middle of this exchange. So, that's piece one. And we want to see that happen as soon as possible, all 48 hostages, both living and deceased. “The second part of it, it's even harder, and that is the long term piece. What happens after Israel pulls back to the yellow line, and potentially beyond that, as this thing develops? How do you create this Palestinian technocratic leadership that's not Hamas, that's not terrorists, and with the help of the international community? “How do you disarm any sort of terrorist groups that are going to be building tunnels and conducting attacks against Israel? How do you get them to demobilize? All that work -- that's going to be hard. But that's critical, because without that, you're not going to have lasting peace. You may get the hostages back, you may get a cessation of hostilities, but in the long term, it's going to happen all over again.” Hero Ukrainian soldier kills 27 Russian troops A heroic Ukrainian warrior killed 27 Russian soldiers singlehandedly while defending two bridges surrounded by enemy forces, reports The U.S. Sun. Rus spent over seven weeks crouched in a putrid-smelling basement protecting the crossings -- armed with nothing more than a firearm and pure grit. The valiant soldier has been recommended for the Hero of Ukraine medal, the country's highest military honor, for his brave work. He personally killed 27 Kremlin forces - steadfast in his defense of the crossings in Dopropilia, in Ukraine's Donetsk region. Speaking to The Times, he recalled the grim reality of spending almost two months taking cover in a gloomy basement as Russian drones buzzed overhead.  He could only use the toilet "at dusk or at dawn" over fears of being struck and for seven weeks only washed with baby wipes. First-ever woman becomes Archbishop of Canterbury Sarah Mullally has been chosen as the new Anglican archbishop of Canterbury, marking the first time a woman has been named to the highest ecclesiastical position in the Anglican Church, reports LifeSiteNews.com. In 1 Timothy 2:12, the Apostle Paul wrote, "I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet.” The seat of the archbishop of Canterbury had been vacant since January 7, 2025, when Archbishop Justin Welby resigned due to allegations of mishandling an abuse case involving John Smyth who beat Winchester Boarding School students until they bled, leaving permanent scars. MarketWatch: 22 states already in recession And finally, according to Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody's Analytics, the U.S. economy is very close to falling into a damaging contraction. Many states are already experiencing a recession. Zandi estimates that 22 states, plus the District of Columbia, are now experiencing persistent economic weakness and job losses that are likely to continue. Another 13 states are treading water. The overall picture is one of a weak U.S. economy that is vulnerable to being pushed into a ditch by a strong wind. The economist added, “The economy is still not in recession, but the risks are very high. We're on the precipice.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, October 6th, 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).

What's the scariest sound in a war zone? In Kherson, Ukraine, it isn't artillery or fighter jets—it's the faint buzz of a $200 quadcopter drone. In this episode of Rights & Wrongs, host Ngofeen Mputubwele takes us inside Russia's use of drones to stalk and attack civilians on the front line. Survivors describe the terror of being hunted from above, and Human Rights Watch's Belkis Wille explains how drones are being misused to commit war crimes, what it could mean for civilians in future conflicts —and why we should be responding now. Belkis Wille: Associate Director of Crisis & Conflict division at Human Rights Watch.

There is a lot of violence in politics right now. Israel's war on Gaza has resulted in thousands of children and innocent civilians being killed, Russia is continuing to pound Ukraine with impunity, while the United States has experienced the return of political assassinations. The far right is no stranger to actual political violence, but Jacob Abolafia argued in a recent essay in The Point magazine that the left has been guilty of intellectualising violence in ways divorced from real politics. From seeing Hamas' October 7 th attacks as an inevitable and even justified result of Israel's colonial oppression, to celebrating the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson by Luigi Mangione, and the gleeful reaction of some to the recent assassination of far right activist Charlie Kirk, the left can be seen to tolerate or even endorse political violence by appeals to philosophers like Franz Fanon, without fully appreciating the political consequences of such violence. So, when is political violence justified, if ever? What alternatives are there when democratic politics and non-violent resistance fail? And is the appeal to violence restricting the left's political vision?Jacob Abolafia is a political theorist who writes on the history of political thought and critical theory, and an anti-occupation activist in Israel. He teaches philosophy at Ben-Guirion University of the Negev. He is the author of the book The Prison Before the Panopticon: Incarceration in Ancient and Modern Political Philosophy. His essay Violence and the Left was recently published in The Point magazine.If you enjoyed the episode, please leave us a rating and a review on Apple Podcasts.This podcast is created in partnership with The Philosopher, the UK's longest running public philosophy journalm founded in 1923.

Drones have been in the headlines a lot lately. On Friday, we reported that Munich saw the latest in a string of airport closures after drones were detected in European airspace. These drones are different from the ones that were in use even a decade ago, as the capabilities of even the cheapest drones have evolved on the battlefields of Ukraine and Russia. And the West is falling behind, something the Trump administration is seeking to address with a potential deal that would give the U.S. access to Ukraine's battle-hardened drone tech. Alistair MacDonald, who covers Ukraine and the defense industry for the Journal, discusses the big business of drones, how Ukraine became a leader in the industry and how the West could catch up.

The narratives and the doctrines built on ever-growing suspicions and fears that are once again stirring the Middle East. Russia's invasion of Ukraine has not just threatened to redraw the map of Europe - it has transformed the global security landscape. The ripple effects have been felt way beyond the continent, reigniting fears not felt since the Cold War - of a new nuclear arms race. In this episode we go back to the beginnings of nuclear ambitions in the Middle East to weigh up the consequences for the world today. With contributions from Barry Sadid, Shaina Oppenheimer, Florence Dixon, and Nihan Kale.

[This is one of the finalists in the 2025 review contest, written by an ACX reader who will remain anonymous until after voting is done. I'll be posting about one of these a week for several months. When you've read them all, I'll ask you to vote for a favorite, so remember which ones you liked] You Can Just Do Things In the winter of 2022 I was unhappily working at a dull but decently compensated IT job, which I had come upon at last after four years of phoning it in at college and abandoning my brief stint as an MMA Fighter/Porn Store Security Guard due to feeling like I was getting too old to be broke. If pressure to fit in with my yuppie, family-and-career-having peers pushed me into corporate life, the depressing mundanity of Covid-era day-to-day pushed me out just as quickly. On February 24th, 2022, Russia began its full scale invasion, and America learned what a “Ukraine” was. Having long used politics as a surrogate activity to distract myself from my life of chronic underachievement, I was already a little more familiar than most with the country's woes, and had followed the conflict from the time of the Euromaidan protests. Years before I had read of the likes of Azov and its many foreign volunteers, and had even periodically fantasized about dropping everything and going to the Donetsk Airport. But no, that Wasn't The Type Of Thing Normal People Like Me Did, so instead I joined my own country's armed forces, sat around pushing papers, earned the dubious honor of washing out “ahead of schedule”, and finally graduated college with a not very useful degree and a mediocre GPA. With the invasion however, things changed. Before I had always vaguely felt that I would eventually end up doing something “cool”, and had soothed myself with reassurances that I was still in the “early life” section of my future Wikipedia article and would bide my time before I made my play at greatness. Now however, the unrealisticness of this conceit was thrown into uncomfortably sharp relief by a certain contrast I could not not ignore. Only three days after the start of the full scale invasion, Ukrainian foreign minister Dymytro Kuleba announced the creation of the “International Legion For The Territorial Defense Of Ukraine”. Unlike in 2014, Ukraine was now specifically and officially soliciting foreigners with military experience to fight for them! I was at least technically in that category! I thought about my own time in the military. My ideas of going to war in Afghanistan had been quashed by the US withdrawal not long after I joined, and I had quickly found that military life involved more editing forms in Adobe Acrobat and less explosions than I had naively supposed. But this was a real war, a deadly serious war, and a major, world defining event at that. In the early months of the invasion the international media talked about almost nothing else. I spent all day at my desk pretending to work while frantically refreshing OSINT live maps and breathlessly following news from the front. I remember the circulation of harrowing video clips. Kalashnikovs being distributed to civilians in Kyiv, the mayor of a small village publicly asking its inhabitants whether they should personally accede to Russian ultimatums, or risk having their property destroyed and lives forfeit- to resounding cries of “Glory to Ukraine”. The Ukrainians' courage blew my mind. There were people who really had something to die for, and by extension something to live for. Meanwhile, there I was, sipping coffee and getting fat. The creation of the legion felt like destiny was reaching its hand out to me. Was I really going to ignore it so I could handle support tickets for the rest of my life? https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/your-review-the-russo-ukrainian-war

2025-10-05 | Silicon Wafers 020 | DAILY UPDATES | The last 48 hours has seen savage strikes by Russia against Ukraine. They coincide with the annual Valdai press event, which can hardly be a coincidence, but they also smack of desperation. It seems that Russia is taking its vengeance on civilians for its failure to breakthrough on the battlefield. Russian strikes have impacted across Kyiv, Lviv, Sumy, and more. The civilian suffering is horrific, the infrastructure wreckage widespread. How should Ukraine respond, especially when winter looms and its energy grid is under renewed assault?The Night of Fire: Russia's Massive Strikes Across Ukraine. Let's begin with what just happened. Over the night of October 4–5, 2025, Russia launched what Ukrainian officials say was one of the largest combined drone-missile barrages yet — roughly 50 missiles and about 500 attack drones. (AP News) The targets: 9 regions across Ukraine, including Lviv, Zaporizhzhia, Ivano-Frankivsk, Chernihiv, Kherson, Kharkiv, Odesa, plus Sumy and Kyiv's periphery. (The Washington Post)----------Partner on this video: KYIV OF MINE Watch the trailer now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arJUcE1rxY0'Kyiv of Mine' is a documentary series about Ukraine's beautiful capital, Kyiv.

Vous aimez notre peau de caste ? Soutenez-nous ! https://www.lenouvelespritpublic.fr/abonnementUne émission de Philippe Meyer, enregistrée en public à l'École alsacienne le 5 octobre 2025.Avec cette semaine :Jean-Louis Bourlanges, essayiste, ancien président de la Commission des Affaires étrangères de l'Assemblée nationale.David Djaïz, entrepreneur et essayiste.Antoine Foucher, consultant, spécialiste des questions sociales, auteur de Sortir du travail qui ne paie plus.Lucile Schmid, présidente de La Fabrique écologique et membre du comité de rédaction de la revue Esprit.LE PROJET DE BUDGET DE LECORNUUne première version du projet de loi de finances pour 2026 a été transmise jeudi pour avis au Haut conseil des finances publiques. La transmission de ce projet de loi marque le coup d'envoi du processus de discussion du budget. Le Haut conseil, un organisme indépendant placé auprès de la Cour des comptes, disposera ensuite de sept jours pour rendre son avis, destiné à être rendu public lors de la présentation formelle du budget par le gouvernement. Le texte devrait être déposé à l'Assemblée nationale au plus tard le 13 octobre, de façon que le Parlement dispose des 70 jours prévus par la Constitution pour en débattre.Le même jour, à la veille des rencontres organisées à Matignon avec le Parti socialiste et le Rassemblement national, l'entourage de Sébastien Lecornu a laissé fuiter quatre pistes de soutien au pouvoir d'achat en précisant toutefois que « rien n'est arbitré ». Il s'agirait de favoriser davantage les heures supplémentaires par une défiscalisation et un allègement des charges sociales ;d'alléger l'impôt sur le revenu des couples modestes : en améliorant le mécanisme de « décote », afin de l'aligner sur l'avantage accordé aux célibataires touchant des montants équivalents. De défiscaliser à nouveau les «primes Macron » les primes des salariés gagnant moins de trois fois le SMIC en 2026. D'encourager les dons familiaux en direction des jeunes générations.Selon le journal Les Échos, le projet de budget inclurait une « année blanche » comprenant le gel du barème de l'impôt sur le revenu et de toutes les pensions de retraite, ainsi que le relèvement du taux du « prélèvement forfaitaire unique » sur les revenus du capital. L'augmentation de la flat tax jusqu'à 36%, rapporterait 1,5 milliard d'euros. Le texte devrait comporter une mesure anti-optimisation centrée sur les holdings, certains contribuables très aisés y stockant de l'argent afin d'échapper à l'impôt. Des mesures seraient également en préparation pour lutter contre l'optimisation des Pactes Dutreil, cet outil fiscal conçu pour réduire la fiscalité des transmissions et donations des entreprises afin de préserver l'outil productif. Quant à la surtaxe d'impôt sur les sociétés, elle serait reconduite d'un an, mais son taux serait divisé par deux par rapport à celui appliqué en 2025. Son rendement attendrait ainsi de l'ordre de 4 milliards d'euros.Vendredi, le Premier ministre s'est engagé à ne pas utiliser l'article 49 alinéa 3 de la Constitution pour faire adopter son budget. L'idée n'est pas nouvelle : entre 1997 et 2002, le premier ministre Lionel Jospin, à la tête d'une « majorité plurielle », avait renoncé à son usage. Si les débats budgétaires s'enlisaient à l'Assemblée, faute de majorité, la méthode Lecornu pourrait dès lors aboutir à l'élaboration d'une loi spéciale ou par le passage du budget par voie d'ordonnances, une première sous la Ve République.SÉCURITÉ EUROPÉENNE FACE AUX MENACES RUSSES APRÈS COPENHAGUEL'Europe est soumise, ces derniers jours, à une série de défis : la Russie teste la capacité de plusieurs pays du nord de l'Europe à faire face à des envois de drones sur leurs aéroports. Elle viole régulièrement l'espace aérien de certains membres de l'Otan afin de mesurer leurs capacités de défense antiaérienne. Oslo, Copenhague, Munich ont été victimes des mêmes survols de drones non identifiés, contraignant les autorités danoises, norvégiennes et allemandes à fermer provisoirement leur espace aérien au-dessus de certains aéroports. Contrairement aux Ukrainiens, les Européens n'ont guère d'expérience dans le domaine de la lutte contre les drones.Dans ce contexte, lundi, Ursula von der Leyen, la présidente de la Commission, a dévoilé, une première cartographie de la « préparation 2030 », date à laquelle l'Europe doit être prête à se défendre par elle-même en cas d'agression russe. Les analyses des services de renseignement européens convergent : dans les trois à cinq prochaines années, la Russie pourrait être en mesure d'attaquer un pays de l'Union européenne ou de l'Otan si une paix en Ukraine lui permettait de se réarmer, et si l'Europe ne pouvait pas compter sur le soutien américain. Les États membres ont identifié neuf domaines capacitaires prioritaires dans lesquels l'Europe doit combler ses lacunes d'ici à 2030 : défense aérienne et antimissile, systèmes d'artillerie, missiles et munitions, cyber et guerre électronique, drones et anti-drones, combat terrestre, capacités maritimes, mobilité militaire et « capacités stratégiques habilitantes ».En vue de renforcer la défense du continent face à la menace russe, les dirigeants des 27 pays de l'Union européenne se sont retrouvés mercredi à Copenhague. Les discussions ont porté principalement sur trois axes : le développement capacitaire conjoint, les « projets phares » - comme le mur de drones ou la surveillance du flanc oriental - et la montée en puissance de l'industrie de défense européenne. Afin d'accélérer la montée en puissance militaire du continent, l'Union européenne a adopté en juin dernier le Security Action For Europe (SAFE), un instrument financier de prêts de 150 milliards d'euros. Environ 100 milliards sont alloués au flanc oriental de l'Europe : 43,7 milliards pour la Pologne, 16,7 milliards pour la Roumanie, 16,2 milliards pour la Hongrie. Cette concentration géographique reflète une réalité diverse. Chaque pays défend actuellement sa portion de frontière d'une manière légèrement différente, à l'aide de systèmes qui vont du plus sophistiqué au moins élaboré. Cette réunion sans conclusion écrite a permis de décanter des sujets qui seront finalisés les 23 et 24 octobre prochains lors du Conseil européen à Bruxelles. Objectif : combler les lacunes et favoriser des acquisitions conjointes pour lutter contre « la fragmentation de nos efforts à travers des initiatives nationales non coordonnées ».Chaque semaine, Philippe Meyer anime une conversation d'analyse politique, argumentée et courtoise, sur des thèmes nationaux et internationaux liés à l'actualité.

Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine, thousands of children have disappeared from their homes.

À Kharkiv, en Ukraine, l'opéra vient de fêter ses cent ans. La ville a beau être située à une trentaine de kilomètres du front, l'institution continue ses spectacles, au sous-sol de cet immense bâtiment. Et si la scène est trois fois plus petite, si plus de la moitié des danseurs et chanteurs sont partis, les représentations font salle comble et pas question pour la troupe d'arrêter. Des portés majestueux, des danseurs qui virevoltent. En cette fin d'après-midi, le ballet de Kharkiv donne une représentation de Corsaire, inspirée d'un poème de Lord Byron. On est bien dans l'opéra de la ville, mais au sous-sol. Plus exactement, dans un abri anti-bombes, transformé depuis un an en salle de spectacle. Ici, l'orchestre joue à quelques centimètres des spectateurs. Les quatre cents sièges de la salle ont davantage l'air de chaises de bureau que de confortables sièges de velours, mais tous les regards sont rivés sur les danseurs qui multiplient les figures aériennes. Olha Charikova, 35 ans, incarne ce soir Gulnare, l'un des rôles principaux. Pour elle, danser à Kharkiv était une évidence : « C'est ma ville natale, mes parents sont ici. Ils ne sont jamais partis. Je veux rester avec eux et faire mon travail. Nous avons l'opportunité de montrer notre art à notre peuple, la guerre est dehors, mais à l'intérieur, nous essayons de leur donner du bonheur et un peu d'espoir pour un futur meilleur. » Il a fallu s'adapter : la scène, trois fois plus petite, ne permet pas d'exécuter toutes les figures, les décors sont simplifiés et certains morceaux ont même dû être retravaillés pour correspondre aux dimensions de la salle. « "Corsaire" se joue maintenant en deux actes au lieu de trois. Par exemple, dans la dernière scène, il y a un grand navire qui vogue sur la scène et coule. Ça ne peut vraiment être montré que sur une grande scène. Aujourd'hui, le ballet se termine avec des jeunes filles en tutu, des fleurs, et une happy end, parce que nous avons déjà assez de tragédies dans nos vies ! », explique Olha Charikova. Maintenir l'opéra à Kharkiv, coûte que coûte  Après le 24 février 2022, la troupe est partie deux ans en Europe, accueillie en Lituanie et en Slovaquie. Mais dès que cela fut possible, ceux qui ont pu le faire sont revenus à Kharkiv. Le directeur de l'opéra, Ihor Tuluzov, a tout tenté pour maintenir l'institution : « Durant les premières semaines, c'était vraiment très difficile, parce qu'il y avait des bombardements constants. Notre bâtiment aussi a été touché. »  À lire aussiUkraine: «pluie» de drones russes sur la ville de Kharkiv, deux morts et trente blessés De nombreuses fenêtres de cette immense dalle de béton ont par exemple explosé. Dans la ville d'ailleurs, même si les ouvriers travaillent vite pour effacer les stigmates de la guerre, on croise encore des façades éventrées, des trottoirs marqués par des éclats d'obus, ou des fenêtres recouvertes par d'immenses palissades. Après deux ans de fermeture, l'opéra a désormais presque repris une activité normale et propose des spectacles plusieurs fois par semaine : « Pour nous, il est très important de montrer, psychologiquement, que Kharkiv bouillonne », souligne Ihor Tuluzov. « Et puis, nous voulons présenter les exemples les plus éclatants de la culture ukrainienne : l'opéra, le ballet, etc. Ce qui compte aussi, c'est que nous, en tant que troupe professionnelle, nous nous produisions ici, à Kharkiv. La ville avait besoin de notre activité, de notre travail, de nos représentations, de notre soutien », ajoute-t-il. « Je suis vraiment heureuse de voir qu'à Kharkiv, notre ville vit sa vie » Plus de la moitié des danseurs et des musiciens sont partis, certains en Europe, d'autres ailleurs en Ukraine. Et d'autres sont partis sur le front. L'un d'entre eux est mort au combat dans les environs de la ville. Chaque représentation est d'ailleurs précédée de l'hymne ukrainien pour leur rendre hommage. Malgré ces conditions, le directeur de l'opéra se veut optimiste : « Bien sûr, maintenant, nous n'avons plus la possibilité d'accueillir autant de spectateurs. Mais je pense que nous avons aussi gagné un nouveau public : des gens qui n'étaient jamais venus à l'opéra ou au ballet avant la guerre. » Dans cette ville où beaucoup de bars, de musées et de salles de concert ont dû fermer, venir à l'opéra est un luxe rare. À l'entracte, Yulia, 27 ans, invitée par son amie Khrystyna, découvre les lieux et a encore les yeux qui brillent : « Je suis très heureuse d'avoir la possibilité de voir l'opéra et le ballet à Kharkiv. » À côté d'elle, son amie renchérit : « Je suis vraiment heureuse de voir qu'à Kharkiv, notre ville vit sa vie. » À l'extérieur, une alerte aérienne retentit : des drones survolent la région. Mais dans la salle, où la sécurité est maximale, personne ne bouge : le public n'entend que la musique. Et dans cet abri, chaque spectacle devient bien plus qu'un simple divertissement : une parenthèse dans un quotidien d'angoisse.

How did “the West” come to be used as a collective self-designation signaling political and cultural commonality? When did “Westerners” begin to refer to themselves in this way? Was the idea handed down from the ancient Greeks, or coined by nineteenth-century imperialists? Neither, writes Georgios Varouxakis in The West: The History of an Idea (Princeton UP, 2025), his ambitious and fascinating genealogy of the idea. “The West” was not used by Plato, Cicero, Locke, Mill, or other canonized figures of what we today call the Western tradition. It was not first wielded by empire-builders. It gradually emerged as of the 1820s and was then, Varouxakis shows, decisively promoted in the 1840s by the French philosopher Auguste Comte (whose political project, incidentally, was passionately anti-imperialist). The need for the use of the term “the West” emerged to avoid the confusing or unwanted consequences of the use of “Europe.” The two overlapped, but were not identical, with the West used to differentiate from certain “others” within Europe as well as to include the Americas. After examining the origins, Varouxakis traces the many and often astonishingly surprising changes in the ways in which the West has been understood, and the different intentions and consequences related to a series of these contested definitions. While other theories of the West consider only particular aspects of the concept and its history (if only in order to take aim at its reputation), Varouxakis's analysis offers a comprehensive account that reaches to the present day, exploring the multiplicity of current, and not least, prospective future meanings. He concludes with an examination of how, since 2022, definitions and membership of the West have been reworked to consider Ukraine, as the evolution and redefinitions continue. Georgios Varouxakis is professor of the history of political thought in the School of History at Queen Mary University of London and Codirector of the Centre for the Study of the History of Political Thought. He is the author of Mill on Nationality, Victorian Political Thought on France and the French, and Liberty Abroad: J. S. Mill on International Relations and the coauthor of Contemporary France.

En première partie, nous voici en Ukraine aujourd'hui. C'est la guerre ouverte, violente, guerre de conquête à coups de chars, de drones, de missiles depuis plus de 3 ans et demi. Donetsk perdue, Kramatorsk est devenue de fait la capitale du Donbass ukrainien, elle voit le front se rapprocher. À vol d'oiseau, il est à une quinzaine de kilomètres et la ville elle-même est régulièrement bombardée. Face aux grignotages incessants du territoire par les forces russes, cette question est de plus en plus prégnante pour les Ukrainiens. Partir ou rester ? La Russie contrôle plus de 70% de la région de Donetsk et la quasi-totalité de celle de Louhansk, elle veut aller plus loin, de gré ou de force. Une perspective redoutée, mais espérée également par certains... En seconde partie d'émission, la réunification allemande, 35 ans après, que reste-t-il de la RDA, l'Allemagne de l'Est, un reportage de Nathalie Versieux.  Est de l'Ukraine, lâcher du terrain ou combattre jusqu'au bout ? Plus de trois ans et demi après la percée des chars russes et 11 ans après le début du conflit, Kramatorsk, devenue de fait la capitale du Donbass ukrainien, voit le front se rapprocher. Les premiers combats sont à une quinzaine de km à vol d'oiseau et la ville elle-même est régulièrement bombardée. Partir ou rester ? La question se fait de plus en plus pressante pour de nombreux habitants de la partie du Donbass sous contrôle ukrainien. À mesure que le front se rapproche, et avec lui, les destructions, des centaines de personnes sont obligées de prendre la route de l'exil.  La Russie contrôle plus de 70% de la région de Donetsk et la quasi-totalité de celle de Louhansk. Elle cherche à s'emparer de la totalité de ce territoire par la force ou la négociation. Une perspective terriblement redoutée mais espérée aussi par certains, alors que les conditions de vie se dégradent chaque jour un peu plus. Un Grand reportage d'Anastasia Becchio et Julien Boileau qui s'entretiennent avec Jacques Allix. Réunification allemande: 35 ans plus tard, que reste-t-il de la RDA? 3 octobre 1990. L'Allemagne divisée depuis 1949 est désormais réunifiée, un peu moins d'un an après l'ouverture du Mur de Berlin en novembre 1989. Fin de 40 ans de partition du pays. 35 ans plus tard, que reste-t-il de l'ex-RDA ? À Berlin, des quantités de traces ont disparu, notamment de nombreux symboles politiques du régime. En province, le passé est-allemand est souvent plus visible. Aujourd'hui, une nouvelle génération semble redécouvrir la valeur architecturale et artistique de la RDA. Mais le débat reste vivace. L'ouest de l'Allemagne ne cède rien de son rejet du communisme. Et l'est du pays dénonce une forme de colonialisation par ses colocataires de l'Ouest. Un Grand reportage de Nathalie Versieux qui s'entretient avec Jacques Allix.

X: @GarrettInExile @americasrt1776 @ileaderssummit @NatashaSrdoc @JoelAnandUSA @supertalk Join America's Roundtable (https://americasrt.com/) radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with the Honorable Tom Garrett, a leading attorney, currently serving as a legislator in the Commonwealth of Virginia, former Assistant Attorney General and former U.S. Congressman. While serving in the US Congress, Tom served on the Foreign Affairs Committee and Homeland Security Committee. An expert on Iran and the Middle East, Tom Garrett's analysis and insights are enlightening as America's foreign policy and national security concerns are focused on a strategic region adversely impacted by Iran, a state sponsor of terrorism. Key Topics: The state of America's economy and the impact of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act focused on cutting taxes for everyday and hardworking Americans, including no tax on tips and overtime, no tax on social security, and savings for American families.

President Trump's speech at the United Nations and the truth that while Western nations spend hundreds of billion of taxpayer dollars on the efforts to address climate change while China continues to be the world's number polluter. He called it "a conjob." President Trump stated that renewable energy, along with migration, was destroying Western countries and placing nations in debt and added greater security challenges. Published report: _President Trump attacked global immigration and efforts to fight climate change during an address to the United Nations, claiming they were among the world's top threats to Western civilization. In an hour-long speech filled with grievances about ongoing wars, windmills and malfunctioning escalators, it was Trump's attacks against what he called a “double-tailed monster” that rang loudest in the ornate General Assembly room. “Immigration and the high cost of so-called green, renewable energy is destroying a large part of the free world and a large part of our planet,” he said. “Countries that cherish freedom are fading fast because of their policies on these two subjects. Both immigration and their suicidal energy ideas will be the death of Western Europe.” “I'm telling you that if you don't get away from the ‘green energy' scam, your country is going to fail. If you don't stop people that you've never seen before that you have nothing in common with, your country is going to fail.” _ President Donald Trump, speech delivered at the United Nations, September 23, 2025 America's eyes are focused on state-wide elections in New Jersey and Virginia, with governors' races and the legislatures which will determine key policies including economic and social issues. Pro-life advocates are concerned about Virginian Democrats pushing for a radical plan: House Joint Resolution 1/Senate Joint Resolution 247, would amend the Virginia Constitution to allow for unrestricted abortion through the third trimester of pregnancy – repealing and preventing widely supported abortion regulations that enjoy broad support from the American people.

Legendary director Abel Ferrara's latest film, “Turn in the Wound”, explores human conflict and the search for peace and balance through the music and words of Patti Smith in reflective conversation with the experiences of people at war in Ukraine. This is one interview Tiller has been looking forward to all his professional life. Abel shares with Tiller the secret to retaining his unflinching creative vision (1:30), making the decision to travel to war-torn Ukraine (8:00), how the film captures the cross-section of humanity in Ukraine (19:00), interweaving the arc of Patti's story (29:30), the resilient nature of the Ukrainian people (40:00), and what Abel's working on next (48:00). Produced by: Jacob Miller Executive Producer: Tiller Russell Music by: James Carroll, Graham Tracey & Zydepunk Distributed by: Jake Brennan & Brady Sadler, Double Elvis Productions

How did “the West” come to be used as a collective self-designation signaling political and cultural commonality? When did “Westerners” begin to refer to themselves in this way? Was the idea handed down from the ancient Greeks, or coined by nineteenth-century imperialists? Neither, writes Georgios Varouxakis in The West: The History of an Idea (Princeton UP, 2025), his ambitious and fascinating genealogy of the idea. “The West” was not used by Plato, Cicero, Locke, Mill, or other canonized figures of what we today call the Western tradition. It was not first wielded by empire-builders. It gradually emerged as of the 1820s and was then, Varouxakis shows, decisively promoted in the 1840s by the French philosopher Auguste Comte (whose political project, incidentally, was passionately anti-imperialist). The need for the use of the term “the West” emerged to avoid the confusing or unwanted consequences of the use of “Europe.” The two overlapped, but were not identical, with the West used to differentiate from certain “others” within Europe as well as to include the Americas. After examining the origins, Varouxakis traces the many and often astonishingly surprising changes in the ways in which the West has been understood, and the different intentions and consequences related to a series of these contested definitions. While other theories of the West consider only particular aspects of the concept and its history (if only in order to take aim at its reputation), Varouxakis's analysis offers a comprehensive account that reaches to the present day, exploring the multiplicity of current, and not least, prospective future meanings. He concludes with an examination of how, since 2022, definitions and membership of the West have been reworked to consider Ukraine, as the evolution and redefinitions continue. Georgios Varouxakis is professor of the history of political thought in the School of History at Queen Mary University of London and Codirector of the Centre for the Study of the History of Political Thought. He is the author of Mill on Nationality, Victorian Political Thought on France and the French, and Liberty Abroad: J. S. Mill on International Relations and the coauthor of Contemporary France. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand.

Can Trump's Gaza peace plan actually work? Sarah and Beth break down the 20-point proposal and why Netanyahu is finally feeling the heat. They discuss what's changed—from polling on Israel to Ukraine's drone warfare lessons—and whether this administration's transactional approach might accidentally deliver lasting peace. Why are so few panicking about the government shutdown? With funding lapsed and Congress in recess, Beth and Sarah explore the "giant shrug" response from those not directly affected and whether crying wolf has made actual shutdowns feel disminished. They debate Democratic strategy on healthcare protections, discuss the problem with shutdown threats, and propose what a genuine budget process reform could look like. What happened when Pete Hegseth called 800 generals to Quantico? Sarah and Beth dissect the defense secretary's retreat featuring Christian nationalism, complaints about "fat" people in the military, and Trump's "enemy within" rhetoric. They work through the tension of taking legitimate military critiques seriously while resisting the administration's trap of making everything a partisan thunderdome—and why the calm response from cities with National Guard deployments offers a better model.

Air Date 10/3/2025 People around the world are angry, often for different reasons and even more frequently based on falseities - though not always. For instance, the Right in the UK and France are upset about immigration though most of those who are angry are wrong about the facts. But there's also widespread dissatisfaction with national governments and pessimism about their ability to make life better over the short term which is leading to much less predictable politics.

Today Joe is out but we have Tommy Carrigan filling in. Tommy takes on one of the most controversial and least-discussed issues in America: the use of our own military on U.S. soil. As the political pendulum swings, he asks a chilling question—what happens when the same machinery of power that's been used to suppress dissent suddenly turns against the other side? Domestic military deployment isn't just a theory; it's a real possibility, and Tommy breaks down how it could reshape our freedoms overnight.   From there, he dives into the global battlefield. Billions of U.S. tax dollars have gone into developing weapons for the war in Ukraine, but the story doesn't end there. Tommy exposes how the military-industrial complex thrives on conflict, constantly innovating and testing new tools of war overseas while ignoring the crumbling security here at home.   Finally, Tommy pulls back the curtain on a story the mainstream media won't touch: President Trump's push to secure rare earth minerals from Ukraine. These resources are critical to weapons manufacturing, and controlling them could mean the difference between military dominance and dependence on hostile nations. Strap in—this episode cuts through the noise and gets to the truth behind war, power, and the future of America.  

Day 1,318.Today, after yet another drone incursion forces the closure of a major European airport - this time in Germany - we examine growing calls from officials to take tougher measures, including shooting drones down on sight. We'll also look at one of Ukraine's most far-reaching strikes to date, more than 1,400 kilometers inside Russia, before turning to some of the lighter, more curious moments in encounters between Russian presidents and world leaders. Later, we bring you our latest dispatch from Odesa, where debate is intensifying over whether to remove a certain statue of Russian poet Alexander Pushkin.Contributors:Francis Dearnley (Executive Editor for Audio). @FrancisDearnley on X.Dominic Nicholls (Associate Editor of Defence). @DomNicholls on X.With thanks to Tetyana Kagitina.CONTENT REFERENCED:Francis's Video Documentary ‘The Battle for Odesa: Ukraine's Culture War' -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28HqbQLYGMM Fears US shutdown will delay weapons shipments to Ukraine (The Telegraph):https://www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025/10/02/us-shutdown-weapons-shipments-ukraine/ Let Nato jets pursue Russian intruders across borders, urges Estonia (The Telegraph):https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/10/03/estonia-natos-disjointed-air-defence-failing-to-deter-putin/ BOOK NOW: 'UKRAINE: THE LATEST' LIVE, IN-PERSON:Join us for an in-person discussion and Q&A at the distinguished Honourable Artillery Company in London on 22nd October at 7pm.Our panel includes General Sir Richard Barrons, former head of UK Joint Forces Command and latterly one of the authors of Britain's Strategic Defence Review, and Orysia Lutsevych, head of the Ukraine Forum at the Chatham House think tank.
