Harohalli Srinivasaiah Doreswamy was 23-years-old when he was jailed for organizing strikes against the British and his second visit to the prison was at the age of 57 when he took on Indira Gandhi. I was 21 and knew nothing about his history when I asked him who he was.

"Until my last breath, I will fight against the communal forces. I am someone who believes in the constitution. If there was no constitution, I would never have been literate, MLA, DCM or CM. My parents were illiterate." #Siddaramaiah after stepping down.

Last mile connectivity is killing Namma Metro’s potential in Bengaluru! My house is just 4-4.5 km from both Purple & Green lines (10-15 min ride), yet no shuttle. Spent ₹90 on auto today just to reach the station. Private vehicle parking or auto — no choice. A mini shuttle service covering 5 km radius around every metro station would be a total GAME CHANGER! #NammaMetro #LastMileConnectivity #Bengaluru

The first one is a digitally altered page being wrongly presented as the front page of The Hindu on June 6, 1967. The second is the actual page released that day. This is what social media is capable of; it can even alter the front page of India's national English daily.

There is a name for boarding a ship and abducting innocent civilians in international waters, @BBCWorld. Its not called 'interception'. The word is piracy.

Since 1976, one less known institution has been forging the physical edge of the #IndianAirForce. The Air Force School of Physical Fitness (#AFSPF) has been the cornerstone of physical training in this military organization. The Ground Training Instructors (#GTI's), alumni from this institute, transform ordinary men & women into potent warriors of the sky. A trainee #soldiers first point of contact, in his or her regime of training are the GTI's and they form the first impression on #cadets and #trainees in their professional journey as men & women in #uniform. This #GoldenJubilee milestone, in 2026, is a treatise to this nostalgic association of generations of #airwarriors, who have transformed as soldiers of the skies, under Physical Training Officers & Ground Training Instructors in the #IAF. #IndianAirForce #AFSPF #WarriorsOfTheSky #MilitaryFitness #AirWarriors #Fitness #GoldenJubilee #DefenceForces

War criminal wanted by the ICC, who has bombed and murdered innocent children in six different countries in one year, accuses accuses Europe of moral failings because it isn't racist and Islamophobic enough for his tastes...

The Israeli military detonating a school in southern Lebanon. The only aim here is to destroy education. Scholasticide.

This is what terrorism looks like, state terrorism, we do it to others and then we act shocked when others do it back to us. War crimes:

This could spell the end of independent journalism in India

58,000 Americans died in Vietnam. Over 3,000,000 Vietnamese died. And for fifty years, American culture has centered the grief of the 58,000 while treating the 3,000,000 as a backdrop. As scenery. As context. As "the Vietnam War experience." They built a wall in Washington with American names on it. A beautiful wall. A solemn wall. Good. Mourn your dead. But understand what that wall does not say. It does not say why they died. It does not say what they were doing there. It does not say what was done in their name to the people whose country it actually was. It does not mention My Lai, where American soldiers massacred an entire village, old men, women, children, babies, and the officer who ordered it served three years of house arrest before being pardoned. Three years. House arrest. Pardoned. For five hundred people murdered in a ditch. It does not mention the 2.7 million acres of Vietnamese forest doused in Agent Orange, a chemical weapon disguised as herbicide, that is still deforming Vietnamese children today. Not in 1970. Not in 1985. Today. Children born in 2020 with bodies twisted by a war their grandparents fought. And the chemical companies that made it are still in business. Still profitable. Still un-prosecuted. And yet they send us human rights reports. They grade our democracy. They warn us about our behavior. The audacity is so enormous it becomes almost impressive. Almost.

He’s popping champagne to celebrate killing Palestinians. They don’t hide their genocidal hate, they toast to it.
