6 October 2023 If any worthy mentioned that this global order which seemed settled for a bit would face upheavals in this form within 2 years of then Australian PM Morrison declaring a Climate of Strategic Uncertainty, then they were clearly Gods Of Tomorrow. Or they were the leadership of Azerbaijan. If there was any […]
27 April 2022 The word from the front is best described as ‘fog of war’. In this week gone by, the world must have noticed how 2 months have passed, a campaign of manoeuvre has now altered into one where attrition has happened in a few places. What now even the West acknowledges is that […]
21 March 2021 While Greek sources offer no insight into any great high way cutting through the Magadha Empire midrib, they offer two clarifications. The first of these is that Indians were organised, martial and their emperor was holding his forces just ahead of the river Hyphasis, and while later day Roman commentators and compilers […]

One of the most telling comments about leadership can be this refrain- Leadership is not a popularity contest! It has many spins, for eg. at home- parenting is not a popularity contest, and that further has gotten a more accurate understanding, with men can be a while on paternity, but women are on maternity for […]
5 January 2026 Should we begin by exchanging New Year Greetings? Apparently the President of Venezuela greeted Americans on their soil and wished them for the New Year, leaving us a little bewildered and mostly in suspended disbelief. If what Russian sources are correct about, the inner most security detail that secured the President of […]
28 December 2025 Vladimir Putin shares the first name with his purported nemesis- Zelenskyy of Ukraine. Therefore it is all the more fitting that in 2025, Putin has outmanoeuvred and created the setting for overturning the efforts of Brussels and isolating Vladimir Zelenskyy of Ukraine. A war that the West egged Ukraine and sold it […]
21 December 2025 To understand United States of America, we need to examine the role of the oceans that straddle her on the ‘east’ and ‘west’, namely Atlantic and Pacific. American power projection appears to be primarily transAtlantic, which is largely an incorrect understanding of how America has always viewed its front porch and its […]
13 December 2025 Much has been made about China’s ‘not so’ peaceful rise, however, if one goes by the manner in which UK and USA became the powers they were, China’s rise is in utter contrast a testimony to pacifism. China’s military actions were not adventurism in the period of its new birth, circa AD1949 […]
11 December 2025 One never knew that a quarter of a century could be this kind of topsy-turvy of what we assumed growing up as ‘normal’. At a geopolitical level, much will be made about this, as historians will review this as a part of a larger pattern of collapse of Empires. To think of […]
19 August 2025 The Alaska Summit was a truly brave effort from POTUS Trump. It indicates how seriously he invested his personal stature and his Administration’s credibility for a peace that no one really wants in Europe. EU/NATO do not want the peace, because it will then force them to tell their electorates that they […]
15 August 2025 It is ironic how the V Day for East ( symbolising the ceremonial surrender of Japan at the end of WW2) would be chosen as Indian Day of Independence by the Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces in South East Asia, who was also the last Viceroy of India, Earl Lord Mountbatten […]
3 August 2025 Shortly the world will go through the mindless commemoration of 80th anniversary of Hiroshima and Nagasaki on 6 and 9 August. Humans will connect with such a passage of time, by remembering that a 1000 full moons have borne witness in this period. And the Gaza Holocaust is going through its final […]
28 June 2025 The first list must be made of PM Benjamin Netanyahu who has managed to stave off a possible judicial unseating on corruption charges so far by using ‘Emergency’ declared repeatedly for better part of last two years as Israel has launched one war after another in the bargain. Of course, no one […]
4 June 2025 If ever there is a Pyrrhic victory as can be, for us in modern times, it is this Dark Sunday the first of June which could well be the point of no return in Europe’s War. In possibly the closest ever to supporting President Putin’s arguments to cement the Russian military intervention […]
