  Yesterday, Israel bombed and killed five individuals in Beirut and injured 28 individuals, Israel justified it as targeted killing, as it killed Hezbollah leader. Israel called it a Precision strike. Interestingly, DW news calls the bombing and killing of Lebanese in South Lebanon as “Israel has carried out a strike in Lebanon”. This is one small instance on how Western media facilitates Genocidal Impunity of Israel and Israelis. A strike as per dictionary means “hit forcibly and deliberately with one’s hand or a weapon or other implement. Yes, strike is used as military term when there is a war, and it means a sudden attack typically a military one. But Israel has a ceasefire agreement with Hezbollah and Lebanon since November 2024. There is no war happening between Israel and Lebanon. But the West and UN seemed to have sanctioned Israel the Genocidal state the right to kill all members of any resistance of armed group it disagrees with in the region. It seems all this is pa...

  Why are dark acts of Israeli forces never given adequate attention in Western media. Unless awareness is created about the same, the so-called Gaza Plan and Board of Peace would be only ways to disempower Palestinians not just as citizens but also as human beings in their own land. Be it children being sniped or Palestinians being abused, raped and tortured all are given a stiff upper lip treatment, even by the French who rarely believe in such an approach to life. A recent incident that happened as the so-called “daily-bomb- interrupted-ceasefire” plays out in Gaza, with Israelis busy carrying out raids in occupied Palestine. One of the incidents of Israeli democratic acts captured on video, happened in Far’a refugee camp, a 15-year-old Palestinian boy Jaja Dullah was shot at the back by Israeli forces. His friend Yemen was the boy, said they were playing on PlayStation when they saw the soldiers they ran away, but his friend tripped and fell. The other boys tried to pull hi...

  After the frequent media coverage on Israeli leaders wanting to auction Palestinian out of Gaza and in fact, they said there were bidders allegedly included Sudan. US President gave weightage to this ethnic cleansing with AI produced video showcasing White billionaires enjoying luxury of Gaza Rivera and the select ethnically inferior oriental wait on White and Jewish superior race. Given the backlash to President Trump’s inhuman and uncouth style, Trump’s Rivera development has undergone a makeover, now it is Gaza Plan with a Peace Board which will probably be headed by the greatest complicit actor with regard to Israel’s genocide on Palestine, the Great US President who feels everything can be marketed even a Genocide. The representative of Al Majid indicated on X they are doing a humanitarian service [1], the person in charge is   an Estonian Israeli, Estonians have strong ties with Zionism and one is supposed to believe that a Zionist Estonian Israeli has sympathy for P...

  West has misused Christian belief and religious sentiments about Jerusalem not just to facilitate creation of Israel through massacre of hundreds and rape done with pride as though it is a right of the Jewish aspirants of an Israeli state, it has ensured Israel evolved as a military innovation hub that can bomb and assassinate its neighbouring country leaders not just with total impunity but also declare the acts with pride, a show case it as instances of intelligence and skills of its groups Mossad (Foreign Intelligence), Shin Bet (Internal Security) and IDF (Military). No one calls these terror acts, which they are but rather the Western countries invite these groups to share their expertise and empower them by making movies on such incidents claiming they are moral acts. When did Jesus Christ become a Machine gun touting person or a Prophet or Son of God with one hand on missile and another to deploy a quadcopter to kill any non-Israeli child that may have escaped a missile ...

 A different post from my usual, this is on the KSEB (Kerala State Electricity Board) and the blind spot of Keralites, with or without the awareness of its governance system. While states across India follow the pattern of monthly billing for electricity consumed, consumers in Kerala, Tamil Nadu and parts of Haryana are billed on a bimonthly basis and the monthly consumption is considered to be average of the total bimonthly consumption. In Haryana, there has been a shift from bimonthly bill payment to monthly payment. Consumers in Kerala have been asking for a monthly based bill for they feel they are being overcharged on months they consume less. The exorbitant billing by the KSEB for our average household connection is what had us take a closer look at its bimonthly billing system and this post is an outcome of that. Suppose your total bimonthly consumption is 1120, but in the first month you consumed only 490 units and in the second month you consumed 530 units. In the bi...

 Prime Minister of Israel stop pretending to be lover of peace, you are a country that has been bombing your neighbours in total impunity, and the sad reality is that none of the neighbours have seriously taken the guideline of ICJ to sanction your country.  You have profited from war crimes, plausible genocide, and you and your nation had no qualms of testing the Jets, quadcopters, the latter tested to such perfection as to ensure perfect result when shooting children lying scared and still after being injured from missile attack.   Prime Minister of Israel, your country has put to shame the entire humanity for the people of the world are unable to ensure sanctions on your country or even to have UN throw you out of system. Even after raping Palestinians, and your citizens attacking officials for arresting the rapists, the citizens of Israel, according to documentation, said the rapists had to be set free.  I am an Indian, I do not want my country to tarnished ...

  For a President who keeps eyeing the Nobel Peace Prize as his most coveted trophy for now, the US President does find it difficult to curb his love for violence both in action and words. The most strategic expression of his passion is the renaming of Department of Defence to Department of War . But, then to be functional Department of War needs War to take action and satisfying that need is giving US President sleepless night, no one seems to appreciate his predicament. After using the expertise of US Military to bomb small fisher boats with fishermen to smithereens, the most powerful US tech military industry is busy sharpening their skills to address the greatest national household crime in Nigeria [1], the livestock theft. From total of 51.8 million household crimes, the largest share is that of livestock theft which accounts for 18% of total crime, followed by theft of crop which accounts for 15.8 percent and among the lowest is theft of motor vehicles which is around 0.6 p...

  BBC, Ofcom and Director of Editorial Complaints and Review (BBC) Peter Johnston stated the documentary on Gaza: How to survive a warzone has to be sanctioned for it committed a “serious breach” of broadcasting rules under Section 3: Accuracy. They expressed the step taken   indicated their professionalism, commitment to their audience and integrity in production of their products. But they all forgot they were committing another serious breach when they sanctioned the documentary stating not “labelling” the 13 years old child as being son of Deputy Minister of Agriculture within Hamas administrative wing was a serious violation of Broadcasting rules and guidelines. They were abusing the rights of a child and defaming him by questioning his integrity and ethics, they did this by sanctioning a documentary on children living through a genocide (not war BBC). It was not Professionalism it was act of total Inhumanity to children in Gaza. Under Broadcasting rules and guidelines ...

  Across developed countries there is a new found passion to attack migrants and blame them for disappearing livelihood options, crime and increasing cost of living. But this is a simplistic analysis of a complex reality that is dynamic. There is an overriding false assumption that migrants are taking away jobs that white population yearn or compete for. It is not possible for migrants to enter a country a) without the direct or in direct collusion of the government or institutions and people in power, especially when migration is reality year after year and surplus labour is a way for cheap labour b) migrants cannot enter a country unless there is a need for them, the only exception at a miniscule level would be extreme fear of prosecution at home c) If migrants see a country as a way for improving the standard of living, then that country needs migrants. Yes, the times they are changing, but not because suddenly a white population have woken up to the threat of migrants. Di...

  Peace is a process is not an outcome of an action at the policy level for policy without ground reality is transitory and a mirage. The integral part of peace is not just the power of the offender but also the power of the victim, a reality asserted to its fullest by Palestinians, ordinary Palestinian from different walks of life across age groups, who patiently went through the process of being tossed around across Palestine by Israeli forces drunk on power from US support and that of EU. As they walked through the maze set by Israel to ensure their fall, be it through snipper shots, bombs, missiles or even being buried alive, they asserted the power of the victims of a genocide. As they walked through the genocide the world watched in horror, but the Palestinian resilience made the world see beyond the horror, we the people saw the might of human mind, the warmth of humanity that cared even when all is lost. We identified with the treasures of humanity Palestinians showed us ...

  The Gaza plan which contains nothing but a list of logical fallacies strung together to ensure the genocide of  Palestinians by Israel, is distant from reality, to highlight the same, according to Gaza Plan the great security threat faced by Israel one of the major global military powers with the best tech based military infrastructure and skills is from Palestinian people and their resistance group of 30,000 members with limited arms and abundance of skills for guerilla war fare but nominal military power for dropping bombs and missiles at will or securing the skies from any threat. UN, you are supposed to stand up for the vulnerable countries, so why are you letting US President and Netanyahu the Genocidaire make a mockery of international justice among UN Member states. Wouldn’t it be your duty to indicate to Palestine that Gaza Plan is a scheming ill meaning effort by US President to ensure Israel can have a say in how sovereign Gaza is formed, managed, secured, run,...
