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 […]
27 May 2025 A month has passed and much of the Genocide in Gaza and the SMO in Ukraine has remained the same, with ‘talks’ being midwifed by the Trump Presidency that increasingly look like mere theatrics and not capable of any alteration of ground situation. The kinetics as folks now call incendiary weaponry being […]
22 April 2025 It was never going to be a long reign as the Pontiff of the Catholic Church, however, in our tumultuous times, as these have been, the papacy of Pope Francis, would be viewed as one where valiantly a leader attempted to rally the faithful to be true to the values espoused in […]
15 April 2025 So far as the tariffs declared by President Trump reached a ‘pause phase’ quickly announced for the next 90 days, the American domestic markets limped back after being shinnied.

5 April 2025 It is easy to play the devil’s advocate or portray President Trump as bedevilled and bent upon destroying America while actually campaigning to MAGA.

14 March 2025 We are perhaps closer to the finish line of an armistice in Ukraine than ever before, a fact that has been confirmed by some details that Secretary Rubio shared over the last week, including details of territorial concessions to be made by Kyiv. Even as this was happening, the SMO was geared […]
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.

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 […]
