Israeli Forces Kill 78 More Palestinians in Gaza Over 48 Hours / The Great American Delusion

NB: Simply stated, the rulers of the ‘civilized’ Western powers and their Israeli proxy are genocidal butchers. For the victims of their slaughter, there’s no difference between various political factions. The funny thing is, they don’t even realize how racist they are. The Biden Administration has presided over the cold blooded murder of over fifty… Read More Israeli Forces Kill 78 More Palestinians in Gaza Over 48 Hours / The Great American Delusion

Settler Colonial Contagion: A Long Simmering Plague / Gaza Catastrophe — Checking Israeli and Western Elites

NB: Israeli depravity has equaled Belsen, Maidanek and Auschwitz. Do Israelis not know what ‘the most moral army in the world’ is doing in Gaza? How can you make your young soldiers run over fleeing Palestinians with tanks and think it a good thing to do? Is not this akin to what the Waffen SS… Read More Settler Colonial Contagion: A Long Simmering Plague / Gaza Catastrophe — Checking Israeli and Western Elites

Eruption of Truth: An Interview with Raimon Panikkar (1918-2010)

NB: An important thinker, Fr Pannikar combined compassion with thoughtfulness; and sought dialogue as a means of addressing the worlds problems. I empathise with him, and am sorry to note (for my part) the absence of divine compassion for the innocents of Gaza; not to mention the millions of innocents who suffered and died in… Read More Eruption of Truth: An Interview with Raimon Panikkar (1918-2010)

The Israeli gangster regime is deliberately murdering children in schools and hospitals. The USA and UK are complicit in the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people

GAZA casualties, live statistics NB: The Netanyahu regime is a proxy for the USA; which supplies it with money and arms for this killing spree. They cannot achieve peace by ethnic cleansing; to the contrary this is a recipe for permanent warfare. The only people profiting from this are the arms manufacturers. The events of… Read More The Israeli gangster regime is deliberately murdering children in schools and hospitals. The USA and UK are complicit in the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people

The Oceanic Circle: Talk on the occasion of Mahatma Gandhi’s 155th birthday

NB: This is the text of the talk I delivered on October 2 at the Gandhi Peace Foundation, New Delhi. DS The bane of our life is our exclusive provincialism, whereas my province must be co-extensive with the Indian boundary so that ultimately it extends to the boundary of the earth. Else it perishes – Mahatma Gandhi,… Read More The Oceanic Circle: Talk on the occasion of Mahatma Gandhi’s 155th birthday

India and the End of Empire. Selected Writings of Daniel O’Connor

One of… Read More India and the End of Empire. Selected Writings of Daniel O’Connor

Pro-Palestinian protesters at the Democratic convention have been met with stony faces, jeers – and violence GAZA casualties, live statistics NB: What does it mean, when tens of thousands of Palestinian corpses and mutilated children mean less to you than Israel’s so-called right to commit genocide? What kind of peace will descend upon Palestinians who… Read More Harris wants to bring ‘joy, joy, joy’ to Americans. And more bombs for Palestinians
