It’s been two and a half years since a civil war broke out in Sudan after a brutal struggle for power between its army and a powerful paramilitary group - the Rapid Support Forces, or RSF. The UN has called it the world’s largest humanitarian catastrophe. Over 150,000 people have been killed, and over 12-million displaced.Last week, the war saw a grim turning point when the northern city of El Fasher came under control of the RSF, which now controls all urban centres in Darfur. For over a year hundreds of thousands of people, many displaced and vulnerable, have been sheltering under siege in El Fasher with little to no access to food or medicine.Dallia Abdelmoniem is a Sudanese political analyst. She’s here to help us understand what’s been happening in El Fasher, the unrelenting war in Sudan more broadly, and the forces - including foreign powers - behind it.

In this first episode of a three-part series on lethal injection in the United States, guest hosts Steve Monacelli and Dr. Michael Phillips describe the futile quest for a “humane” form of execution, from the 1600s to the present day. They explore how each one has turned out to be extremely violent, prompting authorities to move such “gruesome spectacles” out of public view. Finally, they describe how the prospect of a televised execution in the electric chair led to the lethal injection protocol, pioneered by Texas in 1982.

30 שנה עברו מאז נרצח ראש הממשלה יצחק רבין, לילה שסימן נקודת מפנה בתולדות המדינה. כדי להבין מה קרה כאן אז, ב-5 בנובמבר 1995, חזרנו לשבוע שלאחר הרצח. למה שנאמר ונכתב, לקולות ולאנשים. לקריאות לאחדות ומולן הקריאות האלימות והפילוג - לשסע שנפער באותו לילה. החזרה לאותם ימים יכולה ללמד כל כך הרבה היום, שלושים שנה אחרי. בין היתר, על האופן שבו מדינת ישראל התמודדה, ומתמודדת עד היום, עם הטראומה ההיא ועם אלה שהגיעו אחריה.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
