Historian Alfred McCoy says Iran's closure of the Strait of Hormuz carries echoes of the Suez Crisis of 1956, when Egypt was attacked by Israel, France and the United Kingdom and responded by blocking the canal. He says that crisis marked the end of the British empire, and Trump's "ill-advised" war could similarly mark the end of U.S. hegemony.

I speak to all my Bengali friends in Bengali. Because I never had a feeling of superiority for being North Indian. Moreover I live in Bengal so I must learn the local language.

Wonderful statement from the great artist - It’s interesting to note that the exact same speech would have caused hysterics 8 to 10 months ago - i can recall making every one of the points he’s made 10 months ago - perhaps without the eloquence & difference , perhaps comes down to tone .
I love how he expresses he cannot celebrate anything with conditions as they are - he will not normalize it in any way .
Bravo
