This is such a Punjabi thing to do. Sir ji tusi haan te karo baaki mein dekh laan ga. Then go to the other guy and yaar osne haan kar diti ai, hun tu vi haan kar te syapa muka. Neither knows what they have agreed to.

Jha ji is being a hero here. Entire Millennial generation left Bihar during 90s to escape a future that had nothing for them. If your father was in govt or even middle class, the threat of kidnapping was real. Add the caste violence, lawlessness, girls being picked up. An entire generation! A number way bigger than KPs. And it was caste neutral. Brahmins, Bhumihar, Rajputs, Kayastha, SCs, and even Yadavs. If you have even minimal resources, the first thing to do was to send your kid out of Bihar. Survival is important. It is always best you tell your story and not let your history be written by someone else!

What language were the negotiations conducted in? How do you get to a ceasefire without clear terms?

Wars are tragic, yet they remain a reality. Any language or action that contemplates the end of civilisation is unacceptable in the modern world. The use of nuclear weapons can never be justified - under any circumstances.

I'm not a commie or some hippie environmentalist, but there is something wrong with an economic system that encourages the destruction of over 50,000 sq. miles of Indonesian rainforest to produce palm oil. That's an area the size of Pennsylvania, the only habitat for endangered orangutans, being destroyed so we can produce billions of Oreo cookies and millions of jars of Nutella.

Trump's genocidal threats are, of course, illegal and a point of unforgivable shame. But it may also be the bluster before a significant retreat. Trump may accept a variation of Iran's proposal, but precisely to avoid appearing as if he caved, he issues these bombastic threats to leave the impression that Iran backed down out of fear. Accepting elements of the Iranian proposal would have several benefits for Trump: Though Iran insists on charging transit fees, the Straits would nevertheless reopen. Oil would flow once more, which would swiftly push down gas prices in the US. Trump can point to this as a major win, while belittling Tehran's newly won control over the waterway. But precisely because he will be slammed for this by many voices in Washington and in Israel, he needs a narrative that claims Iran caved to his threats. Hence, the unprecedented threats.

Hanging these animals within a week would do more for "police reforms" than endless seminars leading to nothing but samosa sales.

Dissolve FSSAI. Unqualified jokers and corrupted crooks run this institution.

Same water. Same tank. But the one on the right has oysters. A single oyster can filter up to 50 gallons of water a day. Oyster reefs in the Chesapeake Bay once filtered the entire Bay, 19 trillion gallons, in under a week. Today, with less than 1% of the original oyster population remaining, it takes over a year. We ate them. We dredged their reefs. We dumped nitrogen into their water until the algae blooms choked what was left. And now we build billion dollar water treatment plants to do what oysters did for free. The Billion Oyster Project is working to restore oyster reefs in New York Harbor. Restored reefs in Maryland's Harris Creek can now filter the entire creek in under 10 days and remove nitrogen equivalent to 20,000 bags of fertilizer every year. Nature had this figured out. We just have to restore the oysters and get out of the way.

An Easter morning message from President Donald Trump

Imagine spending 1000x of the per capita GSDP of the state to build a statue of a man who wrote against hero worship and cult of personality his entire life.

The Israel Lobby was a core reason the US, contrary to its security interests, picked a fight with Iran after 9/11. The most reformist president in the history of the Islamic Republic, Muhammad Khatami, was elected in a shocking - Khamenei publicly endorsed his opponent - landslide in 1997 on a platform of normal relations with the West ("dialogue of civilizations"), and was in office through 2005. The Clinton Administration publicly expressed optimism about improved ties between the countries. This was despite the 1996 Khobar Tower Bombings by Saudi Hezbollah, which killed 19 American soldiers and in which the US suspected, but could not to Clinton's satisfaction prove, the IRGC played a role.* After the 9/11 attack by Al Qaeda (Sunni extremists supported by the Taliban), we now had a common enemy with Shiite Iran. The Khatami gov forcefully condemned the attack and organized public protests against 9/11 (which Iranian people also spontaneously condemned in great numbers). In October 2001, the IRGC collaborated with the US in the invasion of Afghanistan (which we attacked for the Taliban's sheltering of Al Qaeda), providing the US intelligence, access to Iranian air space, and coordinating the Northern Alliance to help us overthrow the Taliban, notably leading the 2001 uprising in Herat, where Hazaras, Northern Alliance fighters, and Quds Force elements (under the command of Qasem Soleimani) captured the city from the Taliban. Yet months after Iran helped us in Afghanistan - even as an effective co-belligerent in Herat - Bush slammed the door: the January 2002 “Axis of Evil” speech lumped Iran with Iraq and North Korea as existential threats, with the US promising 'confrontation.' In 2003, Iran's grand-bargain proposal (offering an end to its nuclear program, and even an end to support for Hamas/Hezbollah in exchange for a two-state solution between Israel and Palestine), which sought security guarantees against a US attack, was rejected by the White House. The pivot wasn’t driven by sudden new Iranian aggression; there is no such aggression one can point to in this period. (Tehran was pursuing a nuclear program, but it had for many years, as US Intelligence knew.) It was instead shaped by a network of senior Bush Administration officials who viewed Iran policy through the lens of their deep ideological attachment to Israel and its security interests. These officials included Richard Perle, Douglas Feith, and David Wurmser (@Wurmserscribit), all three of whom were among the eight co-authors of the "Clean Break" memorandum for Benjamin Netanyahu (@netanyahu), which called for overthrowing Saddam Hussein in Iraq and 'engaging' Hezbollah, Syria, and Iran militarily. (Rather odd that three senior US officials were writing policy papers for Netanyahu, about how to ensure Israeli security, a few years before they joined a US Administration, but I digress.) These men won the ideological battle against Bush Administration "realists" like Colin Powell, who favored a much less belligerent stance towards Iran. They persuaded Vice President Cheney in particular, and Bush (at least in the First Term), that Iran must be taken out as part of the Administration's doctrine of pre-emptively eliminating potential enemies after 9/11; and also that Iran would be an ideal staging ground for the Administration's "Freedom Agenda," by which pro-US democracies would be established in the Middle East. However, there can be little doubt from their history that these men were in truth ideologically committed to Israel's interests. The Bush Administration would go on to dramatically intensify sanctions against Iran, as part of the largely successful US policy over the last two decades to impoverish that country. The only reason they didn't invade the country was that, following the 2003 invasion of Iraq, the US military became bogged down in a prolonged, fantastically violent insurgency, in the course of which hundreds of thousands of Iraqis and thousands of US soldiers were killed. In the course of this insurgency, the IRGC funded, trained, and equipped, Shiite militant groups in Iraq that killed hundreds of US soldiers, often via roadside bombs. This was the so-called Iranian "aggression" against the US that is now used to justify the current war of aggression. In reality, the Americans blatantly picked a fight with the Iranians after September 11, who were actively seeking détente. And they did so in large part because of the influence of the pro-Israel Lobby in the Bush Administration. * In assessing the allegation of IRGC involvement, it is noteworthy that the Saudis, who were keen to blame the Iranians for the bombing, refused the US access to a range of critical evidence in this case. Clinton's Defense Secretary during the attack, William J. Perry, did not believe Iran was involved in the attack, and Clinton himself did not believe the evidence was strong enough to justify armed retaliation against Iran.

Hindu community must realize that these guys consider us fools and think we'd be appeased by pointless rhetoric like this.

Notice the pattern, > BJP becomes a Major party in odisha. > Suddenly Bhim Army activity increases Same pattern in every state.

🚨 Gujarat’s Surat had a factory making 400 KG fake paneer daily without a drop of milk using palm oil, powder, and industrial acid. Nearly 3 lakh kg supplied in 2 years while FSSAI’s “system” kept sleeping. 🤡🤦‍♂️

You forgot the constant anxiety of being laid off while half your salary gets cut towards EMI on that 25-year home loan you took to buy a matchbox apartment in city outskirts.

Pune flooding should be studied as a masterclass in destroying a hill city’s natural hydrology. A city sitting ~560m above sea level shouldn’t flood, unless you obliterate its rivers, hills, and drainage for real estate. The real estate lobby has systematically destroyed Pune, once known as the Oxford of the East and even considered a potential capital of India before Delhi.
