The sanctions imposed upon the UN Special Rapporteur 𝐅𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐚 𝐀𝐥𝐛𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐞 (Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt) by the most powerful nation in the world is an unprecedented, unheard of move that does not augur well for the future of human rights institutions everywhere. In practical

In this engaging and thought-provoking interview with To the Point for The Wire, William Dalrymple once again reasserts the tragic history of Palestinians, by tracing the gruesome sequence of events over nearly a century and a half that eventually got us here. Following up

𝐓𝐇𝐄 "𝐍𝐔𝐌𝐁" 𝐈𝐍 𝐍𝐔𝐌𝐁𝐄𝐑𝐒. Israel has made the numbers wholly irrelevant. What does it matter that 58,573 people have been murdered in the Gaza Strip since October 7, 2023? Or that 875 Palestinians have been killed and 5,250 more have been wounded at or near aid

The ugly reality of the entitled Indian traveller must be faced by everyone out there, simply because there are way too many of us who have come to believe that we have some mythical right to impose our so-called "Indianness" upon an unsuspecting world. To dismiss this trend

This horror movie has been playing out for over 21 months now. It's only end, we can now safely predict, will be the extermination and / or exodus of all Palestinians from Gaza and the West Bank. The only word that may fit, and yet it falls pitifully short, is, unconscionable.

Take your time, world. Take all the time you need. Be as slow as you can in recognising Israel's war crimes. The last Gazan is still a few months away from being dead. You can then pat yourself on the back for saying the right thing. Donald J. Trump Keir Starmer

𝑰𝒏𝒔𝒂𝒂𝒏 𝒃𝒂𝒏𝒆𝒈𝒂...? On his death anniversary today, I don't want to talk about his songs or his incredible voice. What I truly wonder, in this moment, is what my favourite singer, my dearest Rafi, would have made of the world around him, four and a half decades after

Everybody who didn't stand by Satyendar Jain, and believed the worst just because of the sickening political rivalry between centrist parties, this is upon all of you. We went hoarse shouting that this was a political case but who would believe the biased AAP supporter. #Jain,

Just after the Delhi Elections which the AAP was clearly MADE to LOSE, Sanjay Singh AAP and Arvind Kejriwal had gone on record to speak of the irregularities. Massive irregularities. But the support required to snowball this into a national issue was just not
