Dig into the 1947 Partition of India, when Britain split the region into two states, India and Pakistan, and the mass migrations and violence that followed.
--
In 1947, the British viceroy announced that after 200 years of British rule, India would gain independence and be partitioned into Hindu India and Muslim Pakistan. What followed was one of the largest and bloodiest forced migrations in history: an estimated 1 million people lost their lives. What caused this violent aftermath? Haimanti Roy details the lasting legacies of the Partition of India.
Lesson by Haimanti Roy, directed by Jagriti Khirwar & Raghav Arumugam.

George Galloway launches into a diatribe against Muammar al-Gaddafi, the ruler of Libya who has ruled the country with an iron fist for 42 odd years.
Gaddafi has stated that he would not stand down as leader of the country and would rather die with every last drop of his own blood has been spilt on the ground. He also blames Nescafe for drugging the youths, a dig on the Swiss-Libyan relations.

Animal Instincts
Salmon:
Salmon fasting over a long period induces a feeling of sensitivity in them so that they are able to recognise the proper location.
Each fish swims upstream in the river in which it was hatched to reproduce in the same place from which it originated.
When they are guided to the right place, the salmon start to dig holes for eggs. The females lay eggs, and the males cover them with their sperm to fertilize them.
The females are then motivated by instinct to cover the eggs with an appropriate layer of soil from the riverbed. They stay behind the eggs until they incubate and the young red salmon come out of their holes and shake off their dust.
Both parents cast a final look on the young and realize that they have successfully concluded their mission.
Then they pass away in a state of fasting in the same location, leaving behind a new generation of the young.
When those young grow up and become sexually mature, they will start their fasting and then pass away in a state of fasting in their own and their ancestors' birthplace.

We\'ve all seen the unfortunate consequences in the West Asian region of relying upon American support.
But specifically speaking, what are those consequences?
And despite the deceiving rhetoric of the American government, does the West Asian region need a foreign army to cross thousands of miles to preserve its stability?
What is a better solution for a safe, secure, and stable West Asian region?
The Leader of the Muslim Ummah, Imam Sayyid Ali Khamenei sets the stance.
And remember, \"Those who dig a hole for their brothers, are the ones who fall into it first.\"

==============================
When you look at the collection of religious teachings and guidance, you usually feel they mostly tell us what not to do. [Religion says,] “Don’t do that. Detach yourself from this world. Abandon your wishes.” Religions guidance and commands mostly want us to put things aside. That is why many people don’t like religion. They feel that religious recommendations are mostly prohibiting, bitter and unpleasant.
Is it really like this? Are most of religion\'s recommendations and teachings really about \"cutting off, detaching, giving something up and leaving\"? Is this true or is this a false belief? The fact is, yes, it is like this. The beloved Prophet of Islam (s) both warned and gave good tidings. He gave good news. But it’s clear that the Holy Prophet (s) is mostly addressed as a warner in the Qur’an. And his being a warner is more than his being one who gives good tidings.
Why is it like this? It’s because a person doesn’t need to be told, “Be good. Be in love. Connect with God. Reach Him. Live with love.” You know, human beings don’t need such recommendations. Why? Because a person is in love. He wants to connect [with God]. People have all these good features. They are not apparent. They are hidden in a human being.
If you abandon some things in your life, these will naturally show themselves. A person won’t fall in love by your saying, “Be in love. Be enthusiastic.” Love should come from within. Effective recommendations for people are words such as, “Abandon it. Leave it. Stop. Don’t say it. Don\'t say these words.\"
In fact, religion’s way of training is a bit like looking for treasure. You have to open the way. Pick up this and that. Pick up this rock. Break that rock. Pick these up until you reach that shining gem, or until you reach that clear source of water, for example. It is like digging a well. Some are very pure. With a little digging you reach water. For others, you must dig a deep hole to reach water. So, you see religion’s recommendations mostly tell us what we shouldn’t do. They’re more about abandoning, prohibiting and warning. Religion wants to detach a person from some things instead of advising him to become connected [to God]. Because there is no need to advise people to become connected. We are all in love and have been created in love. If one abandons some things, love will show itself.
So religion’s recommendations are prohibiting in appearances or at least there are more prohibiting ones. Religion truly wants to make people fall in love. But one doesn’t fall in love by telling him to do so. One should remove the obstacles. A person doesn’t need to be told, “Be good. Be in love. Connect with God. Reach Him. Live with love.” Why? Because a person is in love. He wants to connect [with God]. People have all these good features. They are not apparent. They are hidden in a human being.
We’ve been created for a deep, lasting love. We’ve been created for a continually increasing, warming love! How can we gain this? By abandoning many things and detaching our heart from them.

p. 166
Everybody has a Khaybar.
And a \'Khaybar\' is a great fortress that seems to be undefeatable at face value, but with the power of the Almighty Allah and some sincere effort on our part, we can - in the end - come out victorious and triumphant.
But you\'re going to have to dig deep and figure out \"Where Is YOUR KHAYBAR Today?\"
It could very well be depression, anxiety, financial or familial problems, or even something like having no hope or not wanting to wake up in the morning.
But what two attributes are absolutely necessary if you want to be able to overcome and defeat YOUR Khaybar?
And what is a critical question that we must all ask ourselves that will help us to get through our struggles?
What does Imam Ali (A) say about the companions of Imam al-Mahdi (A), while keeping our discussion in view?
Finally, \"Where Is YOUR KHAYBAR Today?\" and perhaps more importantly, how will you defeat it and come out victorious?
Sister Spade explains and answers these questions and more, based upon selections from the book, The Essence of Creation, 3rd edition, as she asks us all a profound and necessary question, \"Where is YOUR KHAYBAR Today?\".
And remember, with the help of the Almighty Allah and some sincere effort on your part, you will definitely overcome YOUR Khaybar, even if it\'s waking up and living another day for the sake of Imam al-Mahdi (A).
