The latest Battle Lines podcast brings up some un-settling scenarios about Americas political future. Deputy US Editor Rozina Sabur shares first-hand insights about the pre-election atmosphere just weeks before the big day
The episode features a thought-provoking look at War Game - a new documentary where real-life US officials played out what might happen if election results get disputed; their simulation showed insurgents taking over the capital (which is quite a wake-up call for democracy watchers)
The show fits into todays complex world picture where old friendships between countries are changing and new problems keep popping up. Hereʼs whats happening right now:
- War in Europe thats been going on for almost 3 years
- Middle-East conflict that started last month
- Recent Taiwan election that changed regional politics
- Yemen and Myanmar dealing with internal fights
- East African countries having some rough patches
Battle Lines helps make sense of all this mess - it mixes reports from people on the ground with smart folks who can explain what it all means. The show looks at how the worlds safety rules dont work as well as they used to in todays multi-power world
