Didn't realise morals were fungible ... but then again, I am no diplomat.
Shashi Tharoor@ShashiTharoor

My latest #TharoorThink column in the @IndianExpress explains why I have not joined the widespread liberal critique of the Indian government’s “moral failure” to condemn the US-Israeli attack on Iran. India has too much at stake to indulge in the morally gratifying grandstanding that could have placed vital national interests at risk. As the late Kofi Annan advised me, citing a Ghanaian proverb: “never hit a man on the head when you have your fingers between his teeth!”

Muslim brothers all over the world. At home, though.... 🤷‍♂️
Narendra Modi@narendramodi

Conveyed advance Eid wishes to my brother, His Majesty King Abdullah II, the King of Jordan, over phone. We expressed concern at the evolving situation in West Asia and highlighted the need for dialogue and diplomacy for the early restoration of peace, security and stability in the region. Attacks on energy infrastructure in West Asia are condemnable and can lead to avoidable escalation. India and Jordan stand in support of unhindered transit of goods and energy. Deeply appreciated Jordan’s efforts in facilitating the safe return of Indians stranded in the region. @KingAbdullahII

It's not just that Himanta Sharma is a loudmouthed bigot -- it is that he is a coward. Says or does something, denies it, says it again... And "an amused Rahul Kanwal" and suchlike let him get away with this shit. theprint.in/india/bjp-lead…

Mohammed Zubair@zoo_bear

Himanta Biswa Sarma has defended the video of him ‘shooting’ Muslims, adding that his target was ‘Miyas’. On NDTV, Sarma also said one must start with rubber bullets, to which an amused Rahul Kanwal quipped, “Baap re, ekdum mafia-style dhamki.” @OishaniB_ altnews.in/himanta-defend…

100 smart cities having been laid to rest, now 100 whatsits. Ok.
Narendra Modi@narendramodi

A landmark step towards accelerating India’s industrial growth! The Union Cabinet has approved Bharat Audyogik Vikas Yojna (BHAVYA). This will enable the development of 100 plug-and-play industrial parks, boosting manufacturing, investment and jobs across the nation. The scheme will significantly enhance Ease of Doing Business through streamlined approvals and single-window systems. It will boost logistics and services sectors too. pib.gov.in/PressReleasePa…

It's a cottage industry now. Trump does things ("on a feeling", he recently said; also said maybe it is a habit). Then his cheerleaders spend their time finding justifications, describing processes Trump supposedly went through but in fact never did...
DNI Tulsi Gabbard@DNIGabbard

Donald Trump was overwhelmingly elected by the American people to be our President and Commander in Chief. As our Commander in Chief, he is responsible for determining what is and is not an imminent threat, and whether or not to take action he deems necessary to protect the safety and security of our troops, the American people and our country.  The Office of the Director of National Intelligence is responsible for helping coordinate and integrate all intelligence to provide the President and Commander in Chief with the best information available to inform his decisions.  After carefully reviewing all the information before him, President Trump concluded that the terrorist Islamist regime in Iran posed an imminent threat and he took action based on that conclusion.

One evening I was sitting under a tree when a hungry lion came charging up. Waiting till I saw the whites of its eyes, I gave it one solid punch on the nose. The lion yelped, tucked its tail between its legs, and ran away. True story. If you don't believe me, I can show you the tree I was sitting under.

Am I in a minority to be repulsed with these targeted assassinations of a nation's leadership? Do civilised nations need to behave in such fashion?
