  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  Hamas, from the Arabic Islamic Resistance Movement, is a militant Islamist organization that aims to represent and lead a resistance movement for the liberation of Palestine from Israeli occupation. The Movement is difficult to place on the spectrum of other non-State actors, such as Hezbollah, as since 2007 it has established itself as the de facto leader of the Gaza Strip, assuming the functions of authority and government. Despite being considered a terrorist organization by the European Union, the United States, and Israel, the group rejects this designation and maintains diplomatic relations with major state actors such as Iran, Qatar, and Turkey.  
  The Jewish-Palestinian conflict is a complex and long-running conflict dating back to the 19th Century. Still, it intensified during the 20th Century, when Jewish immigration to Palestine grew significantly. This conflict focuses mainly on the struggle for land control between Jews and Palestinians in that region. 
  Within Israeli and Palestinian societies, the conflict generates a wide variety of positions. A distinctive feature of the conflict was the high level of violence that was perpetrated for much of its duration. There have been clashes between regular armies, paramilitary groups, terrorist cells, and independent citizens. These clashes were not strictly limited to the military camp and caused a large number of civilian casualties on both sides.

  Above Life's Turmoil - Rise...

  James Allen (1864–1912) was a man who lived his philosophy. Forced to leave school at 15 after his father's murder, he worked in manual labor jobs before dedicating his life to writing and spiritual inquiry. Despite his lack of formal education, he authored nearly twenty books, with As a Man Thinketh becoming his most famous. Above Life's Turmoil was written during the height of his literary career and reflects his deep synthesis of Christian, Buddhist, and Stoic thought, offering a pragmatic path to peace during the tumultuous Industrial Age—a message that resonates even more powerfully today. 
  In an era of relentless noise and external pursuit, James Allen’s Above Life’s Turmoil offers a timeless sanctuary for the soul. This profound work, penned in 1910, is more than a book; it is a practical philosophy for living. Allen, a British philosophical writer who rose from poverty and personal tragedy to become a quiet pioneer of the self-help movement, argues that while chaos is an inevitable part of life, peace is an internal creation. He guides the reader to rise above adversity not by changing the world, but by mastering the self. 
  Through a series of insightful essays, Allen reveals how the cultivation of pure thoughts, compassionate actions, and a disciplined mind is the only true path to unshakable happiness. He explores the immutable law of cause and effect in one’s inner life, demonstrating how we shape our destiny with every thought. This is not a promise of wealth or fame, but of something far greater: enduring serenity, self-conquest, and a harmonious existence. For anyone feeling overwhelmed by the storms of modern life, this classic text remains an essential guide to finding calm, clarity, and purpose within.

  Why White Liberals Fail - Race...

  From FDR to Clinton, Democratic leaders have promised a New South—a model of social equality and economic opportunity. So how did the region become the stronghold of conservative Republicans in thrall to Donald Trump? After a lifetime studying Southern politics, Anthony Badger has come to a provocative conclusion: white liberals failed because they put their faith in policy solutions as an engine for social change and were reluctant to confront directly the explosive racial politics dividing their constituents. 
   
   
   
  After World War II, many Americans believed that if the edifice of racial segregation, white supremacy, and voter disfranchisement could be dismantled across the South, the forces of liberalism would prevail. Hopeful that economic modernization and education would bring about gradual racial change, Southern moderates were rattled when civil rights protest and federal intervention forced their hand. Most were fatalistic in the face of massive resistance. When the end of segregation became inevitable, it was largely driven by activists and mediated by Republican businessmen. 
   
   
   
  Badger considers the dilemmas liberals faced across the South, arguing that their failure cannot be blamed simply on entrenched racism. Conservative triumph was not inevitable, he argues, before pointing to specific false steps and missed opportunities.
