30 May 2025 In what can be classed as the first effective use of air power in a no war no peace scenario, India’s recently concluded Op Sindhoor, ended as it began, abruptly and inconclusively. The reasons are that we as ordinary public and discerning analysts, cannot quite frame the operational references under which the […]
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 […]

17 April 2024 At the time of writing, IDF is yet to retaliate against Iran’s fireworks in the sky a few days back. Many observed that it was a night of great significance, almost Biblical when in Moses’ miracles, first born in every house were smitten by the Lord God. For one sitting far removed […]
