My latest. It is my contention that Pahalgam terror attack is an elaborate trap set up by China with active participation from its vassal, Pakistan. It was a cold blooded massacre of Hindus sanctioned by Beijing. Read, share and tell me your thoughts.

Pakistan is just an expendable prophylactic device, China is the real terror mastermind

Navarro is talking through his hat, but I'm waiting for some Indian analyst writing in a western media outlet, labouring painstakingly to argue that Navarro has a point after all.
#WATCH | US | White House Trade Adviser Peter Navarro says, "In India, 25% tariffs were put in place because they cheat us on trade. Then 25% because of the Russian oil. In many ways, the road to peace runs through New Delhi. ". He said, "Prior to Russia's invasion of Ukraine

With 10% commission on Ukraine weapon sales, Trump is real profiteer of Russia's war — not India . And his cronies have the temerity to accuse India of arbitrage.

With 10% commission on the sale of weapons to Ukraine, it is Donald Trump —not India— that is profiting from the Russian war on Ukraine.

Quite clear that state-owned refiners are importing Russian fuel too. Besides, an argument that implicitly accepts Trump's bad logic in going after India is baffling, to say the least.

A very surprising and problematic statement from Syed Akbaruddin. First of all, to say that only two private companies are buying Russian oil, is not true. Source @grok (One more source in adjoining post)

"Islamism operates on manipulating a sense of decency - and violates it so grotesquely that it somehow exempts itself from any expectation of humanity and decency - and then conditions you to either directly or indirectly champion its cause." Spot on, @indumathi37.
A long post, so don't disturb your peace of mind if you don't like reading long posts on here :) . There is an enormous amount of discourse - in academia, social media, mainstream news, family WhatsApps - that has normalized the idea that even mentioning the impact and events of.

A few days back an American think tank was advising India to exercise 'semantic restraint'. Let's be very clear. This is an unilateral assault on bilateral ties by US, and it is Trump admin that is ratcheting up the rhetoric with fresh insults Every. Single. Day. Clowns like.
White House Trade Adviser Peter Navarro on India: . "Nonsense that India needs Russian Oil". "Profiteering by Indian refiners". "India has Maharaja tariffs". "Road to peace runs thru New Delhi"

Daily volley of threats and insults. Trump and his unhinged band of cronies believe these tactics will bring results. Let us see.
NAVARRO: 'NONSENSE' THAT INDIA NEEDS TO BUY RUSSIAN OIL. - THE ROAD TO PEACE RUNS THROUGH NEW DELHI. - SEE DOUBLING OF INDIA TARIFFS TAKING PLACE AUGUST 27. - INDIA DOESN'T WANT TO RECOGNIZE ITS ROLE IN BLOODSHED. - INDIA IS 'LAUNDROMAT' FOR THE KREMLIN.

Evidently, Trump has decided that he will pile up pressure on India till New Delhi yields. Now watch some fork-tongued analysts issue mealy mouthed equivalence, equating unilateral aggression and daily insults from Trump and his cronies with India's measured responses.

EAM says in Moscow that India is "perplexed" at US stance. Those hoping for a fire and brimstone reaction will be disappointed. India will always speak softly, keep channels of communication open and let its actions do most of the talking.

"this is the key to our sovereignty and independence.".
I have just spoken with Prime Minister @NarendraModi. We coordinated our positions on the war in Ukraine in order to move towards a just and lasting peace, with strong guarantees for Ukraine and Europe’s security. On trade issues, we agreed to strengthen our economic exchanges.
