5 March 2025 The post meet, press conference of sorts at the Oval Office where President Zelenskyy clashed with his hosts, President Trump and Vice President Vance, has not been taken kindly by most viewers. The general assessment was that President Trump was playing to his base, bullying his beleaguered Ukrainian counterpart, aided by the […]
23 February 2025 In modern era post the arrival of combustion, a navy has sailed close to the waters of a country which steadfastly identifies itself with its colonial anachronism- Australia. The Chinese PLAN send a triad of warships ( too small to be a flotilla even) that hooked around the Australian Eastern Coast and […]
17 February 2025 Analysing on the basis of sketchy data, on official communique, and TV soundbites is fraught with danger of getting lost in the details that are generated expecting the human eye to get distracted. It is like smoke screen. Like how Yudhisthira’s ‘kunjara’ was drowned in din when he declared that Aswaththama was […]
13 February 2025 It was perhaps the most eagerly awaited Presidency, much like the ‘Return of the King’ myths that abound in popular fiction and folklore, and so far, Trump 2.0 has not failed at all. Most people who are not Trump loyalists chose Trump because the Democrats had signalled a continuity of Obama Biden […]
14 January 2025 In more than two decades of following current affairs, one has never felt as despondent as towards the end of 2024. There were no signs of the genocide in Gaza letting up, no signs of Ukrainian jingoism tempering, no signs of Russians letting up their ‘meat grinding’ in Kursk and along an […]
11 December 2024 “So a flailing Biden Presidency knows more than it lets on, for its compulsive behaviour that is perpetrating an escalatory cycle against Russia and China.” One has waited long enough for potential detractors to now go silent, since the proof of the pudding is in its eating. As Centcom backed IDF manages […]
3 December 2024 From all pretences and appearances we can draw the following conclusions- 1. President Biden is the chief promoter of the Israeli Lebanese Ceasefire however his clout is not worth any attention to parties involved as both Israeli bombings in Lebanon and Hezbollah retaliations continue unabated. 2. The Middle East was least expecting […]
10 November 2024 The year may still be some weeks in concluding, however some clear red lines have come about, some not really originating in this year, but cemented by events that occurred within the calendar of 2024 while the rest were simply what we have witnessed only here. News Spin: Noise is not enough! […]
18 October 2024 If you had met the blogger even last week, you would never get a hint of what is going to be penned and presented before you. A grist mill product, a set of conspiracies, hagiographies and contexts, that suffer from the sunlight of clarity that truth ordinarily bestows us with. If these […]
5 October 2024 As a blog, a relatively prolonged absence could mean death of interest. For sometime now, a recalcitrance has gripped this space, since the ‘meat grinders’ and ‘meta’ narratives had become such a routine, that the very soul of the analyst was ensnared and benumbed, pausing as much for fresh air and hope […]
