Charles de Gaulle remains one of the most distinctive figures to emerge from the Second World War. Soldier, writer, leader in exile, and later the creator of the Fifth Republic, he played a central role in reshaping modern France. His relationship with Winston Churchill, their shared struggle during the war, and the influence both men continued to wield long after the fighting ended make him a fascinating subject. In this episode, I speak with historian Richard Vinen, author of Last of the Titans: Churchill and de Gaulle. His book explores the lives of de Gaulle and Churchill and sets their wartime partnership within a wider story of national identity, political power, and the long shadow of past greatness. Richard guides us through de Gaulle's early years, his outlook as a soldier, his time in London, and the reasons he became such a commanding presence in French public life. Last of the Titans: Churchill and de Gaulle is also available as an audiobook on Audible.   patreon.com/ww2podcast

Winston Churchill made a statement that many might debate. Right after he was elected Prime Minister of Britain, Germany had just brought their eastern ally, France, to heel and forced the evacuation of almost their whole army from Europe. In a famous speech to the House of Commons, he basically said, If we stand against this overwhelming force and if Britain lasts for another thousand years, “this would be their finest hour.” That is their most notable hour, their supreme hour. Britain has had many great hours, many glorious achievements. Yet, he is singling out this moment as preeminent among many great moments.I say debated because preeminence means nothing exceeds or excels it. Nothing can surpass it in glory or importance. This is the time of year in a couple of weeks when people who love music, sports, memes, and whatever you're interested in will debate on the radio, on talk shows, in countdowns, what was preeminent, what was the most outstanding, the most memorable of the last year. We love to do this because what is most prominent in anything is weighty and glorious, and we all love glory.I note this because after Paul has run through the many excellencies of Christ and he is looking for a word to sum it all up, he says, “in all things he is preeminent!” This Sunday is the third week of Advent, and as we ponder the joy Jesus brings, it is mostly reserved for those who have found out that Jesus really is preeminent in their lives. Hope to see you Sunday!

War asks brutal questions about mercy, justice, and responsibility—and pretending otherwise only spreads the pain. We dive into a real-world flashpoint with cartel violence and examine why “kindness” can become cruelty when it allows predators to return to their trade. Drawing on the battlefield wisdom of Stonewall Jackson, Norman Schwarzkopf, and Winston Churchill, we make the unpopular case that, once force is justified, half measures prolong suffering. Swift, decisive action can actually be the shortest path to peace and protection for the most vulnerable.That conviction doesn't float in abstraction; it sits beside the daily vows that hold a home together. Proverbs 5:19 calls husbands to a fierce, joyful fidelity—“be intoxicated with her love”—a countercultural vision that guards desire inside covenant. We hold that vision against the glittering collapse of Babylon in Revelation 18, where luxury and trade hide a darker ledger that includes human bodies. The warning is stark and timely: systems built on exploitation will fall, and the call to “come out” demands detachment from comforts that cost others their dignity.History and hope round out the journey. We honor Major Richard Ira Bong, the WWII ace whose courage shielded many, and we draw strength from Truman's 1948 Christmas message: peace is not the silence of guns but the presence of justice, freedom, and goodwill. Psalm 146 redirects trust from powerful people to the God who lifts the burdened and shelters the outsider, while a sharp proverb reminds us that stoking anger breeds quarrels. The throughline is simple and demanding—love what is good, protect the least, refuse performative mercy, and build a life aimed at eternal treasure rather than fragile comforts.If this resonates, share it with a friend, subscribe for more, and leave a review to help others find the show.

Guest Roger Moorhouse and host Iain Ballantyne discuss the German submarine threat in WW2 in a lively and engrossing chat. Roger is the author of several acclaimed books, including ‘Killing Hitler' and ‘First to Fight' and now ‘Wolfpack', an excellent single volume deep dive into the submarine arm of the Kriegsmarine - Hitler's navy - and which was reviewed in the November 2025 edition of Warships IFR. Topics touched on in this episode include pondering why the Germans placed their bets on the U-boat again, for the second time in a quarter of a century, despite having seen a similar strategy fail in WW1. Also discussed is the quality and character of the U-boat captains – cool, leather jacket, lumber jack shirt-wearing heroes or villains? Nazis to a man and fanatical supporters of the regime, of just Good Germans doing their best for their country? Iain asks Roger if ‘the U-boat peril' truly was the only thing that ever really frightened Winston Churchill in WW2 - or was the wartime British Prime Minister deploying his usual emotive characterisation to frame his own later record more valiantly? The term Wolfpack reeks of lethality, provoking a shiver of fear, but how effective were the U-boats really once the Allies improved tactics, weaponry and training? Roger provides his perspective on that topic in addition to considering the strategies of Karl Dönitz, the U-boat force boss. Looking at the moral dimension of the conflict, Roger and Iain ponder whether of not it is possible  to set aside the horror of the Nazis and what they did and feel empathy for the tens of thousands of young men in German submarines who died under a hail of Allied depth charges, bombs and gunfire.  Both host and guest offer a dose of common sense about the fantasy in some quarters of Hitler escaping in a U-boat to live out the rest of his days in South America. Finally, Iain asks Roger what he feels might be lessons for today in dealing with the Russian threat, which includes submarines.

He successfully besieged nearly 30 fortresses, commanded multinational armies of up to 100,000 men, and was never defeated in battle.But military genius alone did not secure his position. His wife, Sarah Churchill, maintained a close friendship with Princess Anne that proved crucial to his career. When Anne became queen, Sarah Churchill's influence helped elevate Marlborough to unprecedented heights — a dukedom, command of all English forces, and the manor of Woodstock where he would build Blenheim Palace.Yet when that friendship soured, Marlborough lost everything. Despite his victories, including the Battle of Blenheim, he was dismissed in disgrace, accused of corruption, and forced into exile.We also trace the connection to his descendent, Winston Churchill, who wrote a four-volume biography defending his ancestor and is buried just outside Blenheim Palace.The War of the Spanish Succession reshaped Europe, and Marlborough was central to that transformation.Support the show

Every so often, the sisters return In the 1930s, an aristocratic family in the U.K. became the subject of society pages because of its six sisters, who followed widely divergent paths. The Mitford sisters were Nancy, Pam, Diana, Unity, Jessica ("Decca") and Deborah ("Debo"). Among them, Nancy became a bestselling novelist (Love in a Cold Climate); Diana married a British fascist leader; Unity moved to Germany and became close friends with Hitler; Deborah, the Duchess of Devonshire, presided over a country estate; and Jessica relocated to the U.S., joined the Communist Party and became an accomplished journalist (The American Way of Death). Two new books examine the lives of the Mitford sisters, and both authors will be at the Desmond-Fish Public Library in Garrison on Dec. 13. Carla Kaplan is the author of Troublemaker: The Fierce, Unruly Life of Jessica Mitford, and Mimi Pond wrote and illustrated Do Admit! The Mitford Sisters and Me. They will be joined by Constancia "Dinky" Romilly, 84, Decca's daughter, who lives in Philipstown. Her father, Esmond Romilly - a nephew of Winston Churchill - was killed during World War II, and she was raised in Oakland, California, by her mother and stepfather, Robert Treuhaft. "Every 20 years, there's a Mitford boom," Dinky says. "The new generation is finding out about this pretty remarkable family. My attitude about what was remarkable about my parents was completely different from Swinbrook [the Mitford home in England], and the whole growing up isolated in the country and the fascist sisters." She points out that she was never a Mitford. "I didn't grow up in a Mitford household," she says. "My mother wasn't a recognized personality [as a writer] until after I left to go to college. I grew up in the Treuhaft household; I was Dinky Treuhaft." Along with The American Way of Death (1963), an exposé of abuses in the funeral industry, Decca was known for Hons and Rebels (1960), a memoir of her eccentric upbringing. After moving to California, she became a political activist; her husband was a civil rights lawyer. Dinky says that, as a child and teenager, "I knew that there was this weird family over there [in England] that had titles - the honorable this and the lord that. But when I was growing up, we lived in a lower-middle-class neighborhood in Oakland. My parents didn't have much money. My life was going to school and taking care of my brothers after school." Of the recurring Mitford mania, Dinky says that, "in the past, I have not liked it. It has been annoying to be constantly badgered." But she says she is pleased with the two new books. Troublemaker follows Decca from her country girlhood to her life as an American communist and later journalist dubbed "queen of the muckrakers" by Time. Do Admit! is a graphic memoir that follows author Pond's girlhood obsession with the family's blue-blood lifestyle. "It's exciting to see books coming out that cover all of my mother's life, starting as a Mitford, then her life as a Treuhaft, and then a Mitford again," Dinky says. "The books are both deeply researched. You know, you don't research your own mother. You just grow up with that mother, and then, after you leave home, you watch. My mother was an activist until the day she died. I learned and relearned a lot of things from both books." Kaplan's book focuses on Jessica Mitford "as a person who very consciously changed from an aristocrat, a person of privilege, to a worker in the movements of her time, to a radical activist," says Dinky. It documents "the change in this woman and how she negotiated it, and how that fit in with the history of the period." Pond's book is about the six sisters, "how they developed, how they grew, what their relationships were among each other," Dinky says. "Another good reason to read Mimi's book is that it's clear that my mother was her favorite!" A third book will be available at the event: a newly released paperback edition of Decca's edited letters, of w...

And so we've reached the end of the course on UX leadership and strategy (but not the end of my emails), and I want to leave you with some final thoughts and encouragement for the journey ahead.Being a design leader within an organization is challenging, and you will find yourself coming up against many roadblocks and difficulties along the way. I want to leave you with a quote from Winston Churchill that I absolutely love: "Success is going from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm."As you look forward and begin to work out how you're going to define your role within the organization and how you're going to begin to shift the culture to be more user-centric, I would very much encourage you to keep that quote in mind. Why? Because making these kinds of big organizational changes is a marathon, not a sprint. You won't transform your company's approach to UX overnight. There will be setbacks, resistance, and moments when you feel like you're not making progress. But if you maintain your enthusiasm through those failures and keep pushing forward, you will gradually see change take hold.What we've coveredLet me give you a quick recap of what we've covered in this course.Start by taking control of your role. Define your vision of what user experience is within the organization and what the role of your team is. Don't allow others to define that for you.Step back from day-to-day implementation work as much as you possibly can so that you can have a bigger impact across the organization on more digital projects. Do this by becoming an advisor, a consultant, but more importantly, somebody who provides resources, education, and tools for other people to use.Work at building relationships with your colleagues across the organization, teaching them and empowering them to start adopting user experience best practices themselves and to become UX practitioners. Ultimately, it all comes back to that well-known phrase: don't give a man a fish, but teach him how to fish. If you teach people how to do UX, they're going to be much more successful over the long term and in many more projects than if you just do it for them.Spend some time working on culture hacking, changing the organization as a whole. I'll be honest with you, that's going to be the hardest part of all of this and probably the one that you come to slightly later, once you've built some momentum. But certainly look at promoting yourself within the organization so that people are aware of what you do and your impact. Think about those guerrilla marketing tactics that I taught you about earlier in the course.Find your own wayIf you do all of that, you will be heading in the right direction. However, everything that I've talked about in this course will have to be translated for your organization and your circumstances. Not all of it will apply, and don't feel that you have to do things the way that I've taught you. You need to find your own way, but I hope that the things I've shared here will at least point you in the right direction.Outie's AsideIf you're a freelancer or agency working with client organizations, these principles apply to you too. Your challenge is helping your clients build internal UX capability without making yourself redundant.Focus on being the guide who teaches their team to fish rather than the person who catches all the fish for them. Position your engagements as building capability, not just delivering outputs. Create documentation, run workshops, and leave behind tools and resources that empower their teams after you've gone.Because the clients who learn from you become your best advocates and bring you back for bigger, more strategic work.I'm here if you need meFinally, I would encourage you to reach out to me anytime, and I mean this. You might be reading this years after I've produced it, but still feel free to reach out. Just hit reply to this email and I'll get back to you. I'm happy to answer any questions that you have because I know how difficult it can be being a UX design lead in organizations today.Although this is the end of the course, it's not the end of what I have to share. You will continue to receive emails on everything from conversion optimization, user experience design, UX leadership, user research, and the role of AI in our jobs.Thank you very much for sticking with me right to the end. It is hugely appreciated and I hope you found it useful.

Cinq heures de discussions ce mardi au Kremlin pour pas grand-chose. Aucun accord de paix en vue et pas de conférence de presse. Juste des menaces. « Nombreux étaient ceux qui redoutaient un tel dénouement, pointe Die Welt à Berlin. Poutine n'a donné aucun détail. Son conseiller Iouri Ouchakov a déclaré qu'aucun compromis n'avait encore été trouvé sur la question des territoires et que le Kremlin ne voyait “aucune solution à la crise“. »  Mais le fait le plus saillant, poursuit Die Welt, est que « peu avant la réunion au Kremlin, Poutine a accusé les alliés européens de Kiev de saboter les efforts menés par les États-Unis pour mettre fin à la guerre en Ukraine. “Ils n'ont aucun programme de paix, ils sont du côté de la guerre", a-t-il déclaré à propos des Européens. (…) Avant de formuler cette menace : “si l'Europe décide de nous faire la guerre, nous sommes immédiatement prêts“. Ces accusations, pointe le quotidien allemand, qui ont pour objectif semer la discorde entre Trump et les pays européens et de préparer le terrain pour exonérer Moscou de toute responsabilité dans l'absence de progrès. » La « faute » aux Européens En effet, complète Libération à Paris, « l'objectif est limpide : blâmer les Européens pour le manque d'avancées vers la fin de la guerre (…). Pourquoi ? Parce que les Européens ont eu l'outrecuidance de ne pas approuver son plan de paix. Poutine les accuse de vouloir “empêcher“ les efforts américains visant à mettre fin à la guerre (…), allusion aux efforts des Européens pour modifier le plan de paix en 28 points, dévoilé le 21 novembre, dicté par les Russes aux Américains et que ces derniers avaient présentés comme un effort négocié. Ce plan, pour lequel ni l'Ukraine ni les Européens n'avaient été consultés, avantageait totalement la Russie. » Deux camps En fait, analyse Le Figaro, « il y a désormais deux camps bien identifiés, l'un russo-américain, l'autre euro-ukrainien. Quand le premier s'emploie à décider ce qu'il adviendra du second, cela risque fort d'être au détriment de celui-ci. Un arbitre de bonne foi eût imposé la présence de toutes les parties concernées à chaque étape des pourparlers. Aujourd'hui, Européens et Ukrainiens savent pertinemment que “l'Amérique d'abord“ se soucie fort peu de leurs intérêts, pointe encore Le Figaro. Trump poursuit la gloire d'un Nobel de la paix emballée dans les ors de contrats mirifiques sur les ressources de la Sibérie et de l'Arctique, éclaboussant de profits direct sa famille et ses affidés. Si cela requiert l'abandon de quelques territoires en ruine, déjà occupés aux trois quarts par la Russie, qu'on en passe par là ! » Quant à Poutine, « le maître du Kremlin a choisi son interlocuteur en connaissance de cause. Tant qu'il gardera la main, il ne se privera pas de fixer lui-même le prix de la paix. » Et pour ce qui est des Européens, conclut Le Figaro, « assis sur le banc de touche, ils ne peuvent même pas se plaindre, faute d'être en mesure de proposer une autre partie. » Se débrouiller seuls Enfin attention, prévient le New York Times, « céder à Poutine, ce serait renoncer à bien plus que l'Ukraine. (…) Poutine ne souhaite pas la coexistence. Il aspire à la domination, même au prix du million de victimes que ses forces auraient déjà subies. Cela ne changera pas. Poutine se considère comme une figure historique mondiale et a jusqu'à présent réussi à imposer sa volonté à des adversaires qu'il méprise, les jugeant faibles, vaniteux et corruptibles.

It's 1943. Nazi Germany and its Axis power allies are ravaging Europe and the Pacific with a terrible war. At this juncture, President Franklin Roosevelt has one critical goal: a face-to-face meeting with his allies, Joseph Stalin and Winston Churchill. The first ever meeting of the "Big Three" is set to take place in Tehran, Iran, where the leaders of the three great superpowers will discuss and decide on some of the most crucial strategic details of the war. But when the Nazis learn about the meeting, they form their own secret, deadly plan: an assassination plot that would forever change history...if they're successful. This riveting true story, filled with daring rescues and high stakes intrigue, explains how this pivotal meeting in Tehran changed the course of World War II, and how the Nazi conspiracy to assassinate the Allied leaders nearly led to world-shattering disaster. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name!It is Saturday morning, 29th November 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We go straight to the Gospel of John 7:44-46 (Amplified Version): ”Some of them wanted to arrest Him (that's Jesus), but no one laid hands on Him. Then the guards went [back] to the chief priests and Pharisees, who asked them, “Why did you not bring Him [here with you]?” The guards replied, “Never [at any time] has a man talked the way this Man talks!” Oh, what an orator! You know what an orator is? I looked up the Oxford dictionary - "a person who is good at public speaking”. Well, who was the greatest orator of all time? His name is Jesus Christ! When the High Priest's soldiers were told to go and arrest Him and they heard Him speaking, they couldn't touch Him. They said, ”We have never ever heard a man speak like this before.”I've got a book, it's called ”Speeches That Changed The World”, and it's got the most famous speeches, right from the beginning, right up until now, all kinds of speeches, good ones, bad ones, ugly ones. We just think of Abraham Lincoln. He said, ”Government of the people, by the people, for the people.” Then we look at Winston Churchill during the Second World War, he said, ”Blood, toil, tears and sweat. We shall fight on the beaches, but we will never give up.” Prime Minister Nehru, at the Independence of India said, ”At the stroke of the midnight hour, India will awake.” Then we think of John F Kennedy. He said, "Ask not what your country can do for you. Rather ask what you can do for your country.” But I want to tell you about my friend, Jesus Christ. He spoke to me, almost audibly, through a man, not even a preacher, we're talking about laymen. They came to our little church and started to tell us about Jesus, and it was like my eyes were opened for the first time and Jesus said, ”Come to me, all of you who labour and are heavy laden and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart and you will find rest for your souls”Today, listen to the greatest speaker who has ever lived upon the earth. He saved my soul. He can save your soul today if you will open your spiritual ears and listen to what He wants to tell you.Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day.Goodbye.

In this episode of The New Rules Podcast, Adrian and Bri dive into one of the most overlooked forces shaping our lives: belief. Not blind optimism. Not hype. But the deep, internal conviction that fuels calling, direction, resilience, and identity. Starting with Winston Churchill's outrageous belief at 19 that he would one day save England, the conversation unpacks how belief forms, why it wavers, and how you can build it in your own life. Adrian opens up about his lifelong struggle with self-belief, how ADHD shaped his confidence, and the role others played in helping him see what he couldn't see in himself. They explore: Why belief often looks irrational from the outside. The tension between bold belief and foolishness. How belief anchors identity, especially in seasons of doubt. Why those with strong belief often experience deep lows. How belief in others (kids, spouse, team) shapes their future. Why calling needs both conviction and evidence. The role of time in confirming or correcting your belief. How to choose belief when the evidence isn't there yet. This conversation is honest, practical, and deeply human—helping you understand how belief works and what it will take to become who you're designed to be.

This week Seth Paridon and Jon Parshall dig into the destruction of Force Z at the hands of the Imperial Japanese Navy's air arm. Sent as a deterrent to Japanese aggression in the area in December 1941 by Winston Churchill, Force Z was supposed to be the "big stick" of Royal Navy power in the Pacific. Comprised of HMS Prince of Wals and battlecruiser HMS Repulse, as well as four destroyers, the paltry battleship force under Adm Sir Thomas Phillips sortied from Singapore on December 8 to break up the Japanese invasion fleet headed for Malaya. What occurred after, is often cited as the demise of the battleship as the queen of the seas. In short order, the Japanese Betty's and Nell's, slinging torpedoes, eviscerated the two capital ships and altered the shape of the Malayan campaign.

The source is an excerpt from a faith-based podcast featuring a guest speaker, Philip Cameron, who shares a powerful message encouraging listeners to shift their focus from personal need to giving and helping others. Cameron introduces his ministry, Orphan's Hands, which rescues children from trafficking and orphanages in places like Moldova and Ukraine, emphasizing that he immediately teaches these vulnerable children to give to others to break their "orphan spirit." The speaker uses historical analogies, such as Winston Churchill's use of pots and pans during World War II, and personal anecdotes, including the story of his own adoption of a son from a Romanian orphanage, to illustrate the difference between the devil's "plots" and God's superior "plans." Finally, he makes an appeal for financial support to finish a new Promise House facility dedicated to rescuing younger children.

For all intents and purposes, Nazi Germany has conquered the entire continent of Europe. At present, the only force that stands in its way is the island of Great Britain. Winston Churchill has been Prime Minister for only a few months, but these few months have been terrible for his country. Hitler’s bombs have been dropping on London without mercy. Entire neighborhoods are in rubble. Families are sleeping in subways to avoid the death raining down from above. It is during this difficult, frightening time that Churchill receives an invitation. His old high school has asked him to come and speak to the students. He accepts. As the date nears, Churchill must give some thought as to what he will say. What do you say to teenagers whose families are facing the deprivations of war? When the date arrives, Churchill has decided what he is going to say. He enters the school. He gathers with the students and faculty. Then he gets up to speak. He describes to the students the crucial moment in history in which they live. Then he delivers some of the most memorable words in the entire war. He tells them, “Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never.” In Luke chapter 21, Jesus describes for his disciples the hard and difficult days that lie ahead for his followers. Satan and this fallen world will rage against the message of the gospel—the good news of full forgiveness through faith alone in the crucified and risen Son of God. The lives of Christians will be fraught with persecution, temptation, hostility, and pain. But then Jesus holds out a precious promise. He says, “By standing firm you will gain life.” Apart from our Savior, of course, we would not stand at all. Left to ourselves, we would immediately fall away. But the Savior who has washed away our every sin of disloyalty is the same Savior who empowers us to stand firm. Therefore, in him, filled with the gospel in Word and sacrament, you and I will stand firm in this world until he brings us home to eternal life.

Winston Churchill (1874-1965) utnämning till marinminister 1939 måste vara världshistoriens största politiska comeback. Den möjliggjordes av att Churchill tidigt varnat för Hitler när den politiska majoriteten ville har fred till nästa vilket pris som helst.När andra världskriget bröt ut öppnade det för Churchills återkomst till politikens högsta ämbeten i Storbritannien. Kriget ökade hans livskänsla och han tog sig an arbetet som marinminister med energi och entusiasm.Trots att han vara medansvarig för en misslyckad operation att ockupera Norge för att förhindra svensk malmexport till Tyskland blev fiaskot biljetten till premiärministerposten. Något han strävat efter sedan unga år.Churchill var den enda ledare som kunde vinna bred uppslutning och bildade i maj 1940 en samlingsregering, i vilken även liberaler och arbetarpartiet ingick. Det enda löfte Churchill kunde ge var en tid av ”blod och möda, svett och tårar”. Hans tal till nationen och världen under kriget satte tonen för det brittiska motståndet mot Hitlertyskland.Trots Winston Churchills många fel, brister och misstag under andra världskriget går det inte att bortse från hans centrala betydelse för att Storbritannien inte dukade under av trycket från den oövervinnliga tyska krigsmaskinen. När andra brittiska regeringsmedlemmar ville förhandla med Hitler vägrade Churchill att böja sig. Churchills vägran att förhandla med Hitler avgjorde krigets utgång.I avsnitt 44 av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med författaren Bengt Liljegren som har skrivit flera biografier om historiska personer, bland annat om Winston Churchill, samt Erik Hedling är professor i filmvetenskap vid Lunds universitet med ett särskilt intresse för Winston Churchill.

Förväntningarna var höga på den unge Winston Churchill (1874–1965), som föddes in i den brittiska högadeln. Men bakom aristokratins fasad dolde sig ett besvärligt barn som både familj och släkt gärna undvek.Föräldrarna var sällan närvarande under hans uppväxt. Fadern, den välkände politikern Lord Randolph Churchill, hade en särskilt kylig relation till sonen och avled tidigt, vilket lämnade ett tomrum i Winstons liv.I denna repris av podcasten Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med författaren Bengt Liljegren, lärare och historiker som har skrivit flera biografier om historiska personer, bland annat om Winston Churchill. Dessutom medverkar Churchill-kännaren Erik Hedling som är professor i filmvetenskap vid Lunds universitet.För att förstå hur denne bångstyrige och excentriske yngling kunde utvecklas till en ledargestalt som hela världen samlades kring när den fria världens existens hotades av nazismen under andra världskriget, måste vi blicka mot hans formativa år.Churchill vantrivdes på de engelska internatskolor han skickades till redan som åttaåring. Redan som barn var han en självständig och upprorisk själ, som bland annat vägrade lära sig klassiska språk som grekiska och latin. Trots en uppenbar intellektuell kapacitet hade han svårt att prestera i skolan. Först efter flera försök lyckades han bli antagen till militärhögskolan Sandhurst – en miljö där han för första gången fann trivsel och struktur.Churchill hade tidigt i livet satt som mål att en dag bli premiärminister, och hans envishet gjorde att han gång på gång kunde resa sig efter motgångar. Som ung vuxen valde han ett äventyrligt liv, först som officer och sedan som krigskorrespondent – med uppdrag på Kuba, i Sudan och under boerkriget i Sydafrika.Winston Churchill, som blev Storbritanniens premiärminister under andra världskriget, betraktas som en av världshistoriens mest inflytelserika personer. Enligt Wikipedia – som rangordnar historiska gestalter efter omfattningen och länkningen av deras artiklar – är han världshistoriens femte viktigaste person.Bild: Den unge Winston Churchill i uniform som underlöjtnant vid 4th Queen's Own Hussars i Aldershot år 1895, i början av sin militära karriär.

Pourquoi Winston Churchill reste-t-il un héros… controversé ?

Winston Churchill demeure l'un des visages les plus emblématiques du XXᵉ siècle. Premier ministre britannique pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, il incarne la résistance face à l'Allemagne nazie. Ses discours galvanisants, son courage et sa détermination ont fait de lui un symbole de liberté. Pourtant, derrière cette figure héroïque se cache un homme dont certaines positions politiques et morales suscitent aujourd'hui une profonde controverse.Car si Churchill fut le sauveur de la démocratie européenne, il fut aussi, selon de nombreux historiens, le produit et le défenseur d'un empire colonial profondément inégalitaire. En 1937, lors de la Commission Peel chargée d'examiner l'avenir de la Palestine mandataire, il déclara sans détour qu'il ne voyait « aucun tort » à ce que des peuples autochtones — les Aborigènes d'Australie ou les Amérindiens d'Amérique — aient été remplacés par une « race plus forte et de meilleure qualité ». Pour lui, la domination britannique n'était pas seulement légitime : elle relevait d'un ordre naturel des choses.Mais c'est en Inde, joyau de l'Empire, que ses choix politiques ont eu les conséquences les plus tragiques. En 1943, une famine d'une ampleur catastrophique frappe la province du Bengale. Environ trois millions de personnes meurent de faim. Les causes sont multiples — mauvaises récoltes, guerre, blocages des transports —, mais les archives montrent que Churchill refusa sciemment d'envoyer les cargaisons de blé disponibles dans les colonies voisines. Il justifia ce choix par des considérations racistes : selon lui, « les Indiens se reproduisent comme des lapins » et « étaient de toute façon mal nourris ».Pendant que des familles entières mouraient dans les rizières, le gouvernement britannique continuait d'exporter du riz indien pour nourrir ses troupes et ses alliés. Interpellé par ses ministres sur la gravité de la situation, Churchill répondit par des sarcasmes : il demanda pourquoi Gandhi n'était pas encore mort de faim.Aujourd'hui, ces propos ternissent l'image d'un héros longtemps présenté sans nuance. Pour beaucoup d'historiens, il faut reconnaître Churchill dans toute sa complexité : un stratège exceptionnel et un orateur de génie, mais aussi un homme pétri de préjugés raciaux et d'un colonialisme brutal.Ainsi, l'héritage de Churchill reste double. Il fut le défenseur du monde libre… mais pas de tous les peuples libres. Une gloire bâtie sur la victoire, et une ombre que l'Histoire, désormais, ne peut plus ignorer. Hébergé par Acast.

Most Amazon sellers chase precision when they should be chasing progress.   In this episode, Brian and Robin Joy unpack what it really takes to simplify your systems, trust your numbers, and finally reach the point where the business can pay you.   They break down three powerful frameworks that connect structure, clarity, and growth:   The Three ASIN Types: How to turn chaos into clarity and start treating listings like data, not drama. Profit Clarity: Why chasing perfect numbers kills momentum and how discipline compounds faster than data accuracy. The Profit Profile Framework: What to do when you are profitable on paper but still not getting paid.   As Winston Churchill reminded us, “Perfection is the enemy of progress.”   This episode is your reminder that the fastest path to clarity and cash flow is testing more ASINs, not perfecting the spreadsheet.   Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: "Is it true that IP complaints are really no big deal?"   Watch this episode on our YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/A8HnqMH8WoI   Show note LINKS:    SilentSalesMachine.com - Text the word “free” to 507-800-0090 to get a free copy of Jim's latest book in audio about building multiple income streams online (US only) or visit https://silentjim.com/free11   SilentJim.com/bookacall - Schedule a FREE, customized and insightful consultation with my team or me (Jim) to discuss your e-commerce goals and options.   My Silent Team Facebook group. 100% FREE! https://www.facebook.com/groups/mysilentteam - Join 82,000 + Facebook members from around the world who are using the internet creatively every day to launch and grow multiple income streams through our exciting PROVEN strategies!

A hostage return and the signing of a cease-fire agreement signal a new chapter in the long-running dream of peace in the Middle East. Did it matter that the key negotiators, on the US side, were financiers and real-estate developers rather than scions of America's diplomatic corps? Russell Berman, a Hoover Institution senior fellow and codirector of Hoover's Working Group on the Middle East and the Islamic World, joins GoodFellows regulars Niall Ferguson and John Cochrane to discuss the sturdiness of the Trump White House's 20-point peace plan, the futures of Hamas and the Abraham Accords, the likelihood of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's reliving Winston Churchill's fate (a successful wartime leader rejected by a war-weary electorate), plus whether the “real estate-ism” approach to diplomacy is applicable to President Trump's upcoming meetings with his Russian and Chinese counterparts. After that, Niall and John reflect on the likelihood of a market crash (it is October, after all), the chances of a full-fledged tariff war with China, the merits of a US-Argentina currency swap, plus an ominous warning from the International Monetary Fund regarding global debt. Finally, the fellows salute the legendary economist Thomas Sowell, the subject of a Hoover Institution tribute later this month.   Subscribe to GoodFellows for clarity on today's biggest social, economic, and geostrategic shifts — only on GoodFellows.

"At long last, Mr. President.”—Prime Minister Sir Winston Churchill This is the story of the second year of WWII and the United States' response.  As the war enters its second full year, things are looking dire for Britain: Germany has forced France into submission, the Blitz is in full swing, and the cash-strapped nation is running out of money to pay for US aid. Lend-Lease, or H.R. 1776, is the proposed solution; it'll allow Franklin to transfer munitions to “any country whose defense the President deems vital to the defense of the US.” But there is stiff opposition. Is the language too dictatorial? Does it make entering the war unavoidable? As Americans discuss the bill across the country, famed aviator Charles “Lucky Lindy” Lindbergh will argue against it, while recently defeated 1940 presidential candidate Wendell Willkie will argue for it. Nor are they the only ones disagreeing: workers are striking in record numbers. Building an “arsenal of democracy” means labor and business will have to settle their differences. Meanwhile, as FDR and Winston Churchill secretly meet for the first time in the frigid climes of the northern Atlantic, the Army and Navy are drilling down to brass tacks—what would it really mean if America enters the war? How many men would the nation need in uniform? Could American production cope with wartime demands? Pragmatic American leaders are preparing and planning just in case, mostly with their eyes on Germany … but increasingly on Japan. Relations are eroding swiftly. Perhaps Uncle Sam's greatest immediate threat isn't across the Atlantic but the Pacific … ____ Connect with us on HTDSpodcast.com and go deep into episode bibliographies and book recommendations join discussions in our Facebook community get news and discounts from The HTDS Gazette  come see a live show get HTDS merch or become an HTDS premium member for bonus episodes and other perks.
