An attempt by the German military to enlist the dark side onto its new space defence programme has backfired after critics pointed out awkward parallels to the Nazi past.
At the opening ceremony for the new headquarters of Germany’s space command on Tuesday, major general Michael Traut gave his speech flanked by storm troopers and imperial officers from the sci-fi film series Star Wars.
But what was meant as a light-hearted moment has come in for sharp criticism, with critics reminding the German military that the evil Galactic Empire in Star Wars was partly inspired by Nazi Germany.

Sometimes there are two, or even three, a day. Colleagues say the Ukrainian soldier has the worst job in the army. He rarely gets time off because colleagues are reluctant to cover for him.
Major Laziuk always delivers his bad news face to face.
“The hardest part is when people still have hope,’ he tells The Telegraph. “They think maybe there’s been a mistake.”

,1,Syrian rebels stormed into the city of Aleppo on Friday in a major advance that sent tremors through the regime of Bashar al-Assad.
The push led by the Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) jihadist group had by Friday evening seized at least five western districts of the city, as government forces appeared to melt away.
Video clips shared on social media showed fighters and vehicles advancing into the city where monitors said they were facing little significant resistance.
Barely 48 hours after the offensive reignited front lines that had been static for more than four years, the rapid thrust appeared close to capturing Syria’s second city.

,,gDyXNpm1Jfw,, Politics,Society, channel_UCQfwfsi5VrQ8yKZ-UWmAEFg, video_gDyXNpm1Jfw,Another showdown in the country that launched the so-called coloured revolutions. Georgia’s parliament has shrugged off some of the biggest protests in its post-Soviet history by approving a “foreign agents” bill that mirrors legislation in neighbouring Russia. The opposition argues it is the way for the government to curb media freedom and dissent in a country which only recently graduated to EU candidate status.
Is Tbilisi returning to Russia’s orbit? Or did that already happen when oligarch Bidzina Ivanishvili’s Georgia Dream party won a supermajority back in 2020? That supermajority is now slated to override a presidential veto on what the opposition calls the “Russian law”. Then what?
Ahead of elections later this year, we take a look at what lessons other former Soviet states, like Armenia, Kazakhstan and of course Ukraine - which just 10 years ago was still evenly split between pro-Moscow and pro-EU citizens – can draw from the developments.
Produced by Alessandro Xenos, Guillaume Gougeon and Imen Mellaz.

,1,Vinh quang và thất bại: khi lịch sử không chỉ tôn vinh người chiến thắng !
Khi giới truyền thông đưa tin về chiến thắng của Trump và thất bại của Harris, với vai trò là người quan sát, tôi (Ngô Phong) - đã tìm hiểu rất nhiều về người thất bại. Người hiến thắng thường dễ thấy, nhưng người thất bại lại ẩn mình sâu hơn. Hãy thử hướng sự chú ý của chúng ta đến cách những người thua cuộc bộc lộ ngôn ngữ, phong thái, và cách họ đối diện với thất bại. Từ chính trị, như câu chuyện của Kamala Harris hay Donald Trump, đến những thất bại trong thể thao và cả trong “ván cờ cuộc đời, mỗi người thất bại đều có điều gì đó đáng để ta chiêm nghiệm và học hỏi...

,1,Today’s guest has some unexpected news for you: being happy isn’t possible. Instead, he says, work towards being happy-er.
You'll hear today from social scientist, happiness scholar, and best-selling author Arthur Brooks (Harvard). We talk with Arthur about this journey towards happier-ness and discuss his new book with Oprah Winfrey called Build the Life That You Want: The Art and Science of Getting Happier. If you struggle with turning negative emotions into positive ones, if you're curious about the science behind the promises and claims of happiness scholarship, or if you simply want to live a happier life (and wonder if faith is a part of that), then this episode is for you.
