Based on extensive research and first-hand accounts of those who lived through those volcanic years, Turmoil in Punjab: Before and After Blue Star is an eye-opening narrative of the genesis of the Punjab conflict, the rise of radicalism and the Khalistanis, and the elimination of militancy from the state.

For twenty years after September 11, the war on terror was simultaneously everywhere and nowhere. With all of the military violence occurring overseas even as the threat of sudden mass death permeated life at home, Americans found themselves living in two worlds at the same time. In one of them, soldiers fought overseas so that nothing at home would have to change at all. In the other, life in the United States took on all kinds of unfamiliar shapes, changing people’s sense of themselves, their neighbors, and the strangers they sat next to on airplanes.

Habiburahman was born in 1979 and raised in a small village in western Burma. When he was three years old, the country’s military leader declared that his people, the Rohingya, were not a recognized ethnic group. Since 1982, millions of Rohingya have had to flee their homes as a result of extreme prejudice and persecution. Here, for the first time, a Rohingya speaks up to expose the truth behind this global humanitarian crisis. Through the eyes of a child, we learn about the historic persecution of the Rohingya people and witness the violence Habiburahman endured.

The Russo-Ukrainian War is the most serious geopolitical crisis since the Second World War—and yet at the heart of the conflict is a mystery. Vladimir Putin lurched from a calculating, subtle master of opportunity to a reckless gambler, putting his regime—and Russia itself—at risk of destruction. Why? Drawing on over 25 years’ experience working in Moscow, journalist Owen Matthews provides the answer. He takes us inside the COVID bubble where Putin conceived his invasion plans in a fog of nationalist fantasy and bad information.

Katrin Glatz Brubakk arbeitete im Herbst 2024 einen Monat lang als Kinderpsychologin im Nasser-Krankenhaus in Khan Younis im Süden des Gazastreifens. Mit ihrem Tagebuch aus dieser Zeit zeigt sie, was der Krieg psychologisch mit den Menschen und vor allem den Kindern macht. Unter welchem unvorstellbaren Stress leben sie? Welche existentiellen Sorgen haben sie? Welche Krankheiten und Folgen tragen sie für ihr weiteres Leben davon? Katrin Glatz Brubakk zeigt aber auch, wie sehr sich die Menschen einander helfen wollen — vor allem dabei, die Hoffnung aufrechtzuerhalten.

Part activist memoir, part crash course in Jewish and Palestinian history, Genocide Bad dismantles Zionist propaganda and maps a course towards collective liberation in ten unapologetic essays.

Chi è il vero responsabile del ritorno della guerra in Europa? Secondo il mantra della narrazione occidentale dominante, c'è un solo e unico colpevole: Vladimir Putin, novello Hitler, che avrebbe invaso l'Ucraina senza alcuna motivazione, se non quella di un violento e sfrenato espansionismo. Ma è lecito porsi ulteriori dubbi. In realtà, secondo lo storico americano Benjamin Abelow, sono gli Stati Uniti e la NATO a essere i principali responsabili della crisi ucraina.

En lo más profundo de la noche, una inmensa fogata ilumina repentinamente la ciudad de Turín y la peor de las noticias se dispersa por todo el mundo: el Santo Sudario ha sido destruido. Cuatro meses después, en Roma, un escándalo convulsiona al Vaticano: el coronel Weistaler, jefe de la guardia suiza, ha sido asesinado brutalmente. ¿Qué une a estos acontecimientos aparentemente tan distantes?

Two defense experts explore the collision of war, politics, and social media, where the most important battles are now only a click away. Through the weaponization of social media, the Internet is changing war and politics, just as war and politics are changing the Internet. Terrorists livestream their attacks, “Twitter wars” produce real world casualties, and viral misinformation alters not just the result of battles, but the very fate of nations. The result is that war, tech, and politics have blurred into a new kind of battlespace that plays out on our smartphones.

Laurence Rees, in his magnum opus, combines largely unpublished testimony with the latest academic research to create the first accessible and authoritative account of the Holocaust in over three decades. Rees argues that whilst hatred of the Jews was always at the epicentre of Nazi thinking - and the Holocaust was the most appalling crime in history - what happened cannot be fully understood without considering the murder of the Jews alongside other Nazi plans to kill millions of non-Jews as well.

In The Management of Savagery, Max Blumenthal excavates the real story behind America's dealings with the world and shows how the extremist forces that now threaten peace across the globe are the inevitable flowering of America's imperial designs. Washington's secret funding of the mujahedin provoked the Russian invasion of Afghanistan in 1979. With guns and money, the United States has ever since sustained the extremists, including Osama Bin Laden, who have become its enemies.

Jason Fox served with the SBS for over a decade, thriving on the close bonds of the Special Forces brotherhood and the ‘death or glory’ nature of their missions. Battle Scars tells the story of his career as an elite operator, from the gunfights, hostage rescues, daring escapes and heroic endeavours that defined his service to a battle of a very different kind: the psychological devastation of combat that ultimately forced him to leave the military and the hard reality of what takes place in the mind of a man once a career of imagined invincibility has come to an end.

Após o fatídico 7 de outubro de 2023, estopim de mais uma sangrenta etapa do conflito entre Israel e Palestina, estatísticas e uma profusão de imagens em torno da escalada de vítimas fatais inundam o noticiário global, num processo em que crianças, homens e mulheres se tornam conhecidos somente a partir da morte — e não da vida.

The 15:17 to Paris is an amazing true story of friendship and bravery, of a near terrorist attack averted by three young men who found the heroic unity and strength inside themselves at the moment when they and 500 other innocent travellers needed it most. An ISIS terrorist planned to kill more than 500 people. He would have succeeded except for three American friends who refused to give in to fear.

En interrogeant les liens entre multilatéralisme, conflits armés et crise climatique, ils révèlent des dynamiques jusqu'ici trop rarement pensées ensemble. Ils montrent que les conflits armés et les crises climatiques s'entrelacent et se renforcent mutuellement.

Holocaust Denial: How It Started and Why It Persists is a powerful exposé of the deliberate campaign to distort, erase, and weaponise the memory of the Holocaust. With chilling clarity, historian Cyril Marlen takes listeners through the origins, evolution, and ongoing danger of Holocaust denial—unmasking the pseudoscience, antisemitism, and conspiracy theories that fuel this persistent assault on truth.

Who helped make the massacre in Gaza possible? The Enablers exposes the politicians, companies, media outlets, and celebrities who supported--or stayed silent during--Israel's deadly assault on Gaza. With clear facts, Marwan Julio Khadar shows how bombs need more than just launch codes--they need approval.

In the weeks after Japan finally surrendered to the Allies to end World War II, the world turned to the question of how to move on from years of carnage and destruction. For Harry Truman, Douglas MacArthur, Chiang Kai-shek, and their fellow victors, the question of justice seemed clear: Japan’s militaristic leaders needed to be tried and punished for the surprise attack at Pearl Harbor; shocking atrocities against civilians in China, the Philippines, and elsewhere; and rampant abuses of prisoners of war in notorious incidents such as the Bataan death march.

In the history of Australian diplomacy, the Jakarta post between 2004 and 2007 looms larger than any other. In the span of just a few years, a terrorist bomb attack partially destroyed the Embassy compound, killing eleven; the Boxing Day tsunami wreaked havoc on an almost incomprehensible scale; a bombing in Bali killed twenty, including four Australians; Schapelle Corby divided public opinion; members of the Bali Nine were executed; and a Garuda flight crashed and exploded in Yogyakarta, killing twenty, including members of the Australian diplomatic corps.
