presidential election was arrested, handcuffed and removed from the peaceful demonstration at Washington University in St. Louis. More reason to vote for her.
I have always rejected labels as primitive, simplistic, vulgar. Politicians have a love affair with their "axis of evil" phantasies. For me war is evil. It is the warmongers and war profiteers who are the assassins.
On Tuesday 30 April the ICJ will deliver an order concerning provisional measures in the Nicaragua v. Germany case of complicity in Israel's ongoing Gaza genocide. This is a litmus test for the ICJ's authority and credibility.
In the 1984 case of Military and Paramilitary Activities in and against Nicaragua, the ICJ ruled against the US intervention in Nicaragua, which included not only arming the Contras but also mining ports, destroying infrastructure, etc.
The Israeli government should not be amalgamated, confused or equated with the Jewish people. Holocaust survivors and their descendants are expressing empathy for the Gaza civilians, now undergoing genocide.
Modi’s maiden visit to Kashmir after abrogation of Article 370 failed miserably to create any impact. An election stunt, lollipop of development schemes and claims of normalcy fall flats, thousand of policy paramilitary and army guarding and hounding the public servants male and female to attend gathering, showed no enthusiasm. They were forcibly asked to join. Modi failed to adress issues state is facing, no political engagement, no stoppage in repression, no confidence building measures to create a peaceful South Asia which is a distant dream without resolution of Kashmir issue.

It is #India which needs to conceal its domination and colonial projects initiated in occupied Kashmir. That is why India is shying away from allowing any UN or other impartial observers to monitor situation in occupied territory. #Pakistan has nothing to hide, so any diplomat or UN agency is free to visit.
Indian objected to British Envoys visit is unrealistic.
