Yah its why I bring up the Israeli one in my earlier post already. Precedence set already, and now its broken for this war selectively. Also as I said earlier than that, if Europe has its PR squared away to leverage more of its "lagging" members w.r.t support to Ukraine (France, Spain, Italy...

Turkiye is doing pretty well compared to Thailand actually. Thailand has a whole host of challenges and problems somewhat unique to it that is very long topic to get into (I lived in many parts of south east asia overall and seen certain things firsthand myself). Manufacturing value added in...

She is well within her rights to refuse a handshake....or boycott in first place. I have no issue with her decision. I would likely do the same if my country were in a war with another and the other athlete/competitor had kin involved in the war that has spilled blood of my countryfolk in...

OK, then the Ukrainian competitor has a point here from her standpoint (and I sympathise with her). i.e Neutral flag is just used as flag of convenience here by Russian athlete. I still don't like IOC making exception here....as then it has to make exceptions on same basis consistently with...

If there is qualitative transfer of technology on it past what DRDO has accomplished....then it makes sense. India has to further rationalise and prioritise its RnD at least 5 times more intensely than what it does now to push through a number of things vertically....so where Israel aids in...

Yes its unfortunate the arrogance in political realm, expressed to level of throwing the baby away with the bathwater (now overnight found to be deficient). You know what I think about Indian political scene as well. Its a conundrum we share, the intensities vary (and I can show the numbers I...

I don't get it, the Russian athlete was competing as a neutral to begin with. So how is a determination made by another that she is fully onboard with her country's actions in Ukraine?...to not handshake?...even by their own logic. That logic would need the other athlete to be officially...

Thats great. The India - Israel defence relationship goes from strength to strength over time.

For we shall win through, NO MATTER the cost

At current juncture, UCC is bad idea. If it was to be done, the hard work should have been done in the 50s while there was fresh beginning and conducive atmosphere for such a thing to be done in relative good faith (and identity politics free way)....after the good job (all things considered in...

My point is more focused on the hard military aid, since thats what keeps ukraine political survival and sovereignty. Humanitarian aid and so on could/would be provided whatever the existence status of Ukraine (in the worst case scenario reference....to both folks living under occupation there...

How about the Europeans first do so and match the American provision dollar for dollar....since: A) its their continent, all results impact them much more than an ocean away country B) EU same economic size and overall development per capita + financial resource as the US. C) Bragged 20+ years...

The handing over of INS Kirpan has been completed. https://www.livemint.com/news/india-hands-over-ins-kirpan-to-vietnam-in-landmark-move-11690092007616.html

One of my favourite movies of all time!

Its different to this IMO. I suggest you read more about the firebombing missions, okinawa's impact on the calculation for operation downfall and the conversations taking place in GHQs of both sides (e.g. Marshall being surprised Japan capitulated after two nukes and the Emperor's unique role...
