@DalrympleWill Let’s frame the issue correctly. This is not a war between (the people of ) Israel and Hamas. It is a war between the assassins of Anwar al-Sadat (MB/Hamas) and the assassins of Yitzhak Rabin who are governing Israel. Hamas was their creature to kill the two-State solution.
@FareedZakaria@tomfriedman To a neutral observer, this attack has all the attributes of a meticulously planned outrage. Like 9/11 provoked the US into spending USD 4.5T in two wars that have permanently dented its credibility, Israel looks poised to walk into the same trap. Attention: global chaos ahead.
@sandeep_PT Gentleman, it is not a card but a 80gr receipt paper. The signature on the stamp is my wife’s. We founded the Alliance Française in Ahmedabad and I archived all members’ documents in sealed cardboards in a dark room for tax compliance purpose. Nothing more should be read into it.
@GoldSwitzerland Egon, please stick to what you know best, for what I follow you. If I want to know about heart surgery, astrophysics, or the Ukraine conflict, I will go to specialists, researchers, and any other informed sources. Sur l’Ukraine, tu es complètement à côté de la plaque. Sincèrement
@jawharsircar As an atheist, I see only happy people standing in queue at a reputed shop to buy good cakes made by good chefs to celebrate a nice festival. That is my India.
