Mike Davis's vision of the future: "an American West Bank of terrorized illegal laborers." Barbarism begins at home.
Border Patrol Assistant Chief Patrol Agent/Public Affairs official David Kim: “I would argue that the border is everywhere now in the United States… The border has come to Chicago, Los Angeles, DC.”

Delhi's air has gone past filthy ... and can't be fixed by cosmetic measures like banning crackers or stubble burning. The answer, nudging industrial development away from the northern region, might seem a disruptive solution, but it need not be. In @TheIndiaForum
The air pollution crisis of the Indo-Gangetic plain runs deep. Quick fixes won��t work — it demands systemic change, bold reforms, and multi-pronged action. https://t.co/qJWvbT8etK

Says much about leadership at South Asian University & particularly what's done & tolerated by its octogenarian Prez handpicked by Indian government. Surely there are are plenty of decent, competent, law-abiding Indian citizens with a sense empathy who can fill this position.

As I watch Israel's illegal abduction of the only humans who have risked their lives to break Israel's unlawful blockade, my thoughts are with the people of Gaza, trapped in Israel's killing fields. Shame on Western governments first and foremost, and their complicit inaction.

Startling to see a Judge publicly contradicting what is stated in his own judgment. Candid confession that Judgment was based on extraneous factors which cannot be stated on judicial record.
The "very erection" of Babri mosque was the "fundamental act of desecration", DY Chandrachud tells me. A startling statement -- all the more given the verdict he co-authored clearly says no evidence was supplied to show if the earlier structure was demolished to build a

Trump: "I'm really good at predicting things. During the campaign they had a hat -- a best-selling hat -- 'Trump was right about everything.' And I don't say that in a braggadocios way, but it's true. I've been right about everything."

just to be clear in case there’s still any confusion “114 Palestinian children with single gunshot wounds to head/chest—injuries forensic experts say are consistent with aimed fire” is what “Israel has a right to defend itself” is a euphemism for

While the genocide accelerates in Gaza, in the West Bank Israel is committing fresh war crimes as part of its never-ending ethnic cleansing. When will we act to stop this?
