India led development during the Gupta empire.

Africans during Egyptian empires

Europeans with Greece and new America

If it's not your century as a people group, odds are it was or will be.

Which is why, no shame in India asking China for help etc

@WarMonitorClips So, they have paved roads for vehicles but not discovered guns?

It shows that if people disagree just enough with today's 'you messed with the wrong generation' youth - the enlightened, environment loving, system change loving modern Lanka - we can be just as as dehumanizing as those before us

Tbh I'm far more ashamed by the 'laugh' emojis on this news article, motivated by racist concerns than most of the other news. We may laugh at clergy and politicians, but this shows how deeply broken 'respectable' civil society is. https://t.co/vKJI597Ppu

@NewsWireLK Not sure which is worse really, Namal representing himself with Johnston Fernando, or Johnston Fernando playing appu to two generations in a row

Mohammed Odeh, newly elevated to lead Hamas’s military wing after Izz al‑Din al‑Haddad’s assassination two weeks ago, has now been eliminated in an Israeli airstrike on Gaza City’s Al‑Rimal neighborhood. True to form, he was hiding in a building packed with civilians; another example of Hamas’s deliberate, systematic use of noncombatants as shields for its military infrastructure. Hamas boasts endlessly about its “legendary” tunnel network, yet its senior commanders consistently choose to live and die above ground, dragging civilians with them rather than using the very tunnels they glorify. And instead of taking the guaranteed safe passage out of Gaza that was offered to them, Hamas’s leaders insist on a suicidal last stand. They seem convinced history will romanticize their death cultism, as if reenacting Hitler’s bunker mentality, determined to bring Gaza down with them and turn every block into rubble. This is the “resistance” so many in the West still cheer for, including the influencer champagne‑communist types who proudly declare they would “100% vote for” it.

On the first day of Eid al-Adha, Israeli-Jewish activists distributed flowers to their Muslim neighbors.

Choose love, not hate.

One of the most downloaded open source medical embedding models worldwide is made by 'street pooper' Balachandran Abhinand of Tamil Nadu. How much of MAGA believe in race-specific competency/IQ (or lack thereof) is beyond me

[Ashan DDB @ashanddb]

@chami9539 So he admits he has evidence this happens and kept quiet as well, or has no evidence it happens and is talking about it?

🇵🇭 A meteor fell from the sky while a volcano erupted underneath it in the Philippines and somehow both happened at the same time

Incredible footage

@RT_com They threatened the suspect with a kiss and he agreed to sign a confession instead (?)

@svembu Anyone know this one - "what do you see?" "I see only the bird" These characters are etched in our minds and while I don't worship them, have high respect.

[Ashan DDB @ashanddb]

@svembu If you want to compare teachings, fair game. Behaviour of its best, game too. MAGA vs hindutva, fair as well. But you can't compare MAGA against the Gita. Love the Christian gospel myself esp book of Romans. I also still remember lines from the Mahabharata as a kid

@zhao_dashuai Imagine if they did gain of function lab experiments too, and gave the world a pandemic! Wait..

This little angel, 6-year-old MinatAllah Nabil Abu Labda, was killed today in an Israeli airstrike on the Al-Mawasi area in Khan Younis in the Gaza Strip.

[Ashan DDB @ashanddb]

@shahalan @Hanuman_Banda @RW_SRILANKA Agreed. Multiple things are often true about human beings, and politicians aren't exempt.
