Lessons from a Dark Era | Hitler - Germany's Fatal Attraction | Episode 3 | Full Documentary

Dec 4, 2025 | This documentary examines the final years of Hitler’s regime and the catastrophic consequences of Nazi ideology between 1939 and 1945. Through historical analysis, survivor testimony, and archival footage, it explores how Germany fell under the influence of a destructive leader—and how that vision ultimately collapsed under the weight of war, genocide, and total devastation.

The film also reflects on the legacy of these events: the moral consequences, the profound human cost, and the ongoing debate in Europe and the United States about whether earlier intervention could have prevented the atrocities.

This is an educational, fact-based look at one of the darkest chapters in world history, highlighting the importance of vigilance, accountability, and remembering the past to prevent future tragedies.



Es scheint, als stünden wir bald wieder vor ähnlich finsteren Zeiten! Die Menschen scheinen nichts aus der Geschichte gelernt zu haben. Damals wurde die Welt durch Adolf Hitler, seine finstere Ideologie und seine perversen Begierden in Dunkelheit gehüllt. Heute wird die Welt durch Donald Trump und Wladimir Putin in Verderben gestürzt. Diesen beiden geht es nur um Profit und persönliche Bereicherung. Wie viele Menschen dafür sterben müssen, ist ihnen völlig egal. — © Mark Alexander

C of E to Challenge Tommy Robinson’s ‘Put Christ Back Into Christmas’ Message

THE GUARDIAN: Church leaders respond to far-right appropriation of Christian symbols with ‘Outsiders welcome’ message

The Church of England is to launch a poster campaign aimed at challenging the anti-migrant message of Tommy Robinson, whose “Unite the Kingdom” movement has urged its supporters to join a carols event next weekend to “put the Christ back into Christmas”.

The posters, which will go on display at bus stops, say “Christ has always been in Christmas” and “Outsiders welcome”. They will also be available for local churches to download and display over the festive period.

The C of E’s decision to challenge Robinson’s extreme rightwing stance comes amid growing unease among church leaders about the rise of Christian nationalism and the appropriation of Christian symbols to bolster the views of his supporters. » | Harriet Sherwood | Sunday, December 7, 2025

US May End Support for Ukraine War Effort, Says Donald Trump Jr

THE GUARDIAN: Eldest son of Donald Trump makes speculative comments during tirade against Volodymyr Zelenskyy and EU

Donald Trump may walk away from the Ukrainian war, the US president’s oldest son has said in comments to a Middle East conference.

In a lengthy tirade against the purpose of continued fighting in Ukraine, Donald Trump Jr also said Ukraine’s “corrupt” rich had fled their country leaving “what they believed to be the peasant class” to fight the war.

Trump Jr has no formal role inside his father’s administration, but is a key figure in the Maga movement. His intervention reflects the antipathy among some inside the Trump team towards the Ukrainian government, and comes as Trump’s negotiating team is putting pressure on Kyiv to give up territory.

Trump Jr said the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, was prolonging the war because he knew he would never win an election if it ended. He said Zelenskyy was a borderline deity on the left, but argued that Ukraine was far more corrupt than Russia. » | Patrick Wintour in Doha | Sunday, December 7, 2025

Le prince Harry compare son enfance à Downton Abbey

MADAME FIGARO : Alors qu’il se trouvait à un événement de «réseautage», le duc de Sussex a prononcé un discours dans lequel il a comparé, avec humour, son enfance à la série imaginée par Julian Fellowes.

Et si la vie au sein de la famille royale britannique ressemblait aux séries et aux films sur l’aristocratie britannique ? C’est ce qu’a avoué le prince Harry. En effet, le média HELLO! explique dans un article publié ce dimanche 7 décembre, que le duc de Sussex se trouvait récemment à un événement de «réseautage» à Los Angeles. Sur place il a commencé à faire un discours comparant son enfance au sein du clan Windsor à la série Downton Abbey, ce programme qui suit la vie des membres de la famille Crawley, riches aristocrates britanniques, et de leurs domestiques dans leur château situé dans le Yorkshire au Royaume-Uni. » | Par Leonie Dutrievoz | dimanche 7 décembre 2025

«Vous avez vu comment elles font tomber leur voile ?» : Farah Pahlavi, ex-impératrice d’Iran que les mollahs ne sont pas parvenus à écorcher

LE FIGARO : ENTRETIEN - L’ex-impératrice d’Iran, qui a fêté ses 87 ans le 14 octobre, a reçu chez elle Le Figaro Magazine. L’occasion de revenir sur son destin hors du commun… et d’évoquer l’avenir de son pays.

Un appartement parisien, quelques tableaux et des photos de famille soigneusement encadrées. Par les fenêtres, on voit la Seine, indolente, qui roule ses eaux grasses. Un petit chien – Mowgli – accueille les visiteurs. C’est ici que vit en exil la dernière impératrice d’Iran, Farah, 87 ans. La voilà : une silhouette élégante, d’une élégance apaisée qui traverse le temps sans en trahir la gravité. Et ses yeux : on y lit la douceur et la douleur, la tendresse pour ce qui fut et la dignité de ce qui reste. Il y a, dans ce regard-là, tout un monde : non pas celui qui a disparu, mais celui qu’elle continue de porter en silence. On y devine aussi l’espoir tenace d’un autre avenir pour l’Iran.

Car quarante-six ans après son avènement, la République islamique d’Iran vacille, tout au bord du gouffre, frappée de l’extérieur et minée de l’intérieur par la colère de la population, éreintée par la misère, des années de corruption et l’incapacité – ou le refus – du gouvernement d’écouter le peuple et de se réformer. Dans ce pays de 88 millions d’habitants – dont l’âge moyen est de 32 ans –, les deux tiers du territoire sont privés d’eau potable et deux personnes sur trois vivent au-dessous du seuil de pauvreté, malgré la rente pétrolière et gazière du pays. Des coupures d’électricité quotidiennes de plus en plus fréquentes, de plus en plus longues, affectent la vie des entreprises et des institutions, obligées de fermer leurs portes plusieurs jours par semaine. L’inflation s’élève à 50 %. Dans les hôpitaux, la pénurie de médicaments et l’épuisement minent le moral du personnel médical, à bout de forces et de moyens. » | Par Emmanuel Razavi et Jean-Marie Montali, pour Le Figaro Magazine | dimanche 7 décembre 2025

Dec 6, 2025 | The White House has released a controversial new National Security Strategy (NSS) that marks a major realignment of U.S. foreign policy under the "America First" banner.

Current and former European officials are already pushing back against the strategy's assertions regarding European alliances and demographics.
