    Bosnia 30 years on from the Srebrenica Genocide | The London Circle

    | The London Circle | 09 July 2025 The Srebrenica genocide in 1995, was the culmination of a conflict that marked one of the darkest moments of Europe, indeed humanity. What led to that horrific crime, and what challenges does Bosnia find itself confronting today? The Balkans war of the early 90s marked a violation of the pledge “Never Again” made in the aftermath of the 2nd World War and the Nazi Holocaust. A war based on ethnicity and religion that had neighbours pitted against each other, and acts of treachery the likes of which boggles the mind, committed and perpetrated. In today’s episode, Anas Altikriti discusses with the Ambassador of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Osman Topcagic, the prevalent situation in Bosnia, and the underlying challenges to peace and stability. The Ambassador explains the ongoing obstinance of Serbia, supported by some European countries, to block Bosnia’s wish to join the EU and NATO. ----------- Guests: | Osman Topcagic, Bosnian Ambassador to the UK   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    The Court Case of Chris Nineham & Ben Jamal | The London Circle

    | The London Circle | 03 July 2025 Chris Nineham and Ben Jamal of the PSC will appear in Court on Monday 7th of July, after being arrested for breaching rules imposed by the Police upon the demonstration of the 18th of January. How has the untouchable array of freedoms regress so much, to end up where they seem to be today? No one questions the right to demonstrate, unless it’s the British authorities, it seems. The case brought against leading figures of the Pro-Palestine solidarity movement brings to question the entire structure of rights and freedoms when they are interpreted by political and security authorities. Chris Nineham discusses with Anas Altikriti, the significant changes these rights have seen over the decades since the formation of the modern anti-war movement. They discuss also the state of the Left and the “social revolt” in light of the Israeli genocide in Gaza, and what means for the future of the next generation . ----------- Guests: | Chris Nineham, Vice-Chair Stop The War Coalition   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Prof. Kamal Nasharuddin and Dr. Hafidzi Mohd Nor, to discuss how Malaysian perceive the global world order through the lens of the ongoing massacre in Gaza, and Palestine generally. ----------- Guests: | Dato Seri Prof Kamal Nasharuddin, Chairman MyCARE (Humanitarian Care Malaysia) | Dr. Hafidzi Mohd Nor, Advisor Board Member, Palestine Centre of Excellence See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    A Journey Through Arab and Muslim History and Culture | The London Circle

    | The London Circle | 22 May 2025 The impact of Arab and Muslim history and culture on the West is far greater than we are told, taught and educated. Damascus alone; its history, culture, literature and cuisine, provides a lesson we would be advised to learn from. Diana Darke talks about her house in Damascus, as though describing a love story that embodies her fascination with Arab and Middle Eastern history and culture. In this episode, she discusses with Anas Altikriti how her love affair with that region began and how it developed over the years. She also talks about the Ottomans and how history might have not credited them as it should have. ----------- Guests: | Dr. Diana Darke, Arabist Historian and Author   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Murjana; A Novel for the Ages | The London Circle

    | The London Circle | 17 May 2025 With a mixture of romance, medicine, politics, religion and history, Murjana is a novel that speaks of a fascinating time and place, but with unmistakable parallels with the here and now. Whether motivated by the illegal war and occupation against Iraq in 2003, or even the chaotic state of the world today, Dr. Ghada Karmi writes a beautiful tale that has many truths for today’s readers. Baghdad, the capital of the world and the cradle of one of the most fascinating civilisations in history, sees the unfolding of events that speak of everything, but tells of how the distortion of history and memory can be one of the cruelest crimes committed against man. In this episode, she speaks with Anas Altikriti about her latest book. ----------- Guests: | Dr. Ghada Karmi   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
