In re: What the Defence Minister’s statement at the SCO summit could mean

President Trump has likely indicated to India and Pakistan that he wants talks and limited trade to resume. You could see some movement on airspace to start with.

Practically India & Pakistan have to work towards an India-China-like relationship. Serious disputes remain but trade & travel flourish.

The United Arab Emirates is a very good example of a place where Pakistanis and Indian Hindus live in peace & co-operate with each other without giving up on core views.

One has to study these relationships in the United Arab Emirates from the point of view of economic interdependence, security structure (zero violent crime societies) & multiplayer international influence (something that India, irrespective of who is in power, irrationally resists when it comes to Pakistan).

 

In re: The latest assassination attempt on President Trump & Iran

There is probably no Iranian hand in the latest assassination attempt on President Trump. The lone gunman Cole Tomas Allen appears to be a crazy liberal.

However the photograph of him with him after his arrest, shared by President Trump should be a message to the freaks in charge in Iran.  They need to sort out their internal nonsense & make a deal with the United States, They should stop misbehaving.

The Pakistanis are undoubtedly doing a good job facilitating and now even mediating between the United States and Iran, no matter what India's mainstream media wants its audience to believe. This Araqchi character wants a deal but his bosses are crazier. Let us hope for the sake of the Iranian people that the crazies in charge will see sense.

Either way, Donald J. Trump, the most consequential world leader of our lifetimes, will prevail.

In re: Chopra, Basra, Sharma, Sajdeh, Ganesan et al

Always analyse who a famous man marries.

If she is famous but not as famous as him, you can reliably predict what he will do (what will happen to him).

Reason: That marriage is essentially a career move for her.

In re: The Hell-Hole that is India

I am more than patriotic. I am a nationalist. However I agree with President Donald Trump on the state of India – it certainly is a hellhole.

If India was not a hell hole, so many Indians wouldn't have been leaving India over decades & so many parts of this country would not have been dependent on remittances.

We have to align ourselves with the United States to take our people out of poverty. Enough non-alignment, ‘MikeInIndia’, ‘AtmanirbharBharat’ & other multi-decadal nonsense.

Condemning President Trump for this is mere bravado.

In re: Mr. Rajesh Ranjan, MP [popularly known as Pappu Yadav]

I am not a fan of Mr. Rajesh Ranjan’s ‘Secular’ politics.

However as someone who has met him many times, I can attest to the fact that he is NOT anti women. If anything, he has always been pro women in politics as well as personal/social life. I have always seen him as a kind of provincial feminist.

His recent comments with respect to many women in politics were simply – HONEST. Indeed what he said is something that most people who follow politics are aware of.

I stand with Mr. Rajesh Ranjan on this issue.

In re: Allama Iqbal's Death Anniversary [21st April]

What many Hindus do not realize is that Allama Iqbal was the man who imagined Pakistan though the name itself was coined by Choudhry Rahmat Ali.

He is recognized as the ‘National Poet of Pakistan’ and indeed held in equal esteem with Qaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah who essentially implemented his vision – I am glad he did, though. Those two gentlemen & others like them gave us Hindus our enduring majority in today's India.

PS: Oh & yea – ‘Bulbule’ et al.

In re: An article in ‘The Print’

The medical education scheme referred to in this article was offered by Pakistan to Kashmiris as a way to further fuel pro Pakistan sentiments in Kashmir. It was essentially Pakistani soft power.

People like the impacted students shout not be rehabilitated except under some larger deal with Pakistan itself. They can however be allowed to move to Pakistan PERMANENTLY.

Credit though to Mr. Shekhar Gupta that he allows diverse views in ‘The Print’ however misguided those views may be. It gives us a chance to push back and call out the nonsense.

In re: The deep freeze which could not happen. 

Freaks on all sides assume that these Ladies Bills were about North & South/Rural & Urban.

What they fail to understand is that the real reason why the BJP was trying to push these bills through can be found in Western Uttar Pradesh & places of the like.

They were hoping to use the 2011 census and then freeze delimitation for 25 more years, if not longer.

Hint: Hindu women have been refusing to respect nature and Hindu men have generally been getting weaker and weaker.

If you do not understand what I am talking about, you are a bigger freak than anyone in your family &/or circle could have imagined.

In re: A news report about a Rajasthan Administrative Services officer being arrested for allegedly accepting a bribe.

A well known journalist commented on this incident & suggested that young officers should try and remain clean at the beginning of their service.

I disagree. There can be a short term need for funds - most officers come from middle class backgrounds. Rich kids don't bother with government jobs.

However why can't such officers have a carrier pick up the money somewhere safe? They should consult seniors and choose safe & loyal carriers.

In re: Women's Quota, Delimitation et al  

Either way I am happy:
- If these bills don't pass, these BJP supporting ladies will be unhappy.
- If they pass, jingoistic South Indians will be unhappy.

In re: What Iran’s fan boys fail &/or refuse to understand

Lieutenant General Sayeed, a retired Pakistani officer, claimed on a Geo News show anchored by an anti Israel & anti India anchor, Saleem Khan Safi that: ‘Had any Iranian communicated back home with supreme leader or IRGC commanders it would have disclosed their locations and given an opportunity to Israel to target them’ – his own English translation on X.

Ironically this demolished the narrative of Iran fan boys. The Iranian leadership is now completely dependent on security from the Pakistanis - that's the fear of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

It seems now that the United States now wants the next round of talks to be in Geneva. That would be workable for Iran only if there can be Pakistan Air Force escort planes from Teheran with a halt in Turkiye to refuel. Essentially only Pakistan can guarantee security for the Iranian delegation.

Only someone who is dishonest &/or stupid would claim that Iran is winning in such a situation.

In re: Eric Swalwell, Due Process & the Procedure Established by Law

I am no fan of Eric Swalwell & his liberal politics but the idea that people should suspend campaigns or otherwise get out of the system just because of allegations of sexual assault is dangerous.

What happened to due process?

I have no desire to hold a public position - I am averse to hard work. However if I ever do & such allegations are leveled against me, I will NOT resign even if jailed.

I may resign if CHARGE is framed & I fail to get the trial stayed by the High Court/Supreme Court.

In re: The dangers of pickle-ball culture 

This pickle-ball culture will lead to matrimonial disputes among other things because of:

1. Couples playing with each other, seeing & comparing physical abilities &
2. Where people play with friends without family members at night - often leading windows for cheating.

In re: Why talks in Islamabad between the United States & Iran, outcome irrespective, could be arranged, while India & Pakistan continue to refuse to talk to each other beyond what is unavoidable. 

Abrahamic people are more likely to be able to get along with each other. India is a Hindu majority country.

That said, Pakistan has an unhealthy obsession with Kashmir. If Pakistan would be open to an India-China-like relationship, talks could start tomorrow.

There are prominent Pakistanis like former Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi who have publicly spoken about the possibility of having a relationship with India similar to the India-China relationship. Former Senator Mustafa Nawaz Khokhar probably has similar views.

However too many crazies have more influence.

In re: Israel, Iran, India & Pakistan

Field Marshall Asim Munir, Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar & Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi personally received both delegations in Islamabad.

This is the pragmatism which allows Pakistan to endure in spite of perpetual chaos. They reserve their lack of pragmatism for India - essentially their unhealthy obsession with Kashmir. 

Notice Asim Munir's messaging:
- Wearing a combat uniform to receive the Iranian delegation - as the only security guarantor against Israel & 
- Wearing a business suit to receive Vice President Vance - as America's point-man in the region. (The classic Jalandhari father at a wedding reception look).

The image of a Meraj plane carrying the Iranian delegation to Islamabad being escorted by Pakistani Air Force Jets demonstrates Iran’s fear of Israel. Indeed apart from Pakistan & arguably Turkiye, there is no pro Palestine country which Israel fears. Iran will be more & more dependent on Pakistan.

This is not good for India which will need to diversify its energy sources. Pakistan, as Iran’s only security guarantor can influence, if not control, economic ties between Iran & India.

In re: The United States, Iran, India & Pakistan

India could never have been a major player in Iran except in the minds of bewakoof Bharatiya peopleS. We are a Hindu majority country and NOT a 'Biradar Mulk' for Iran. Further, we have consistently, over decades, refused to align with the United States in the manner that Pakistan does.

Pakistan is the only country that both Iran and the United States trust equally. It also has strong ties with the Gulf countries & China. It has a strategic location. Asim Munir & his hybrid regime have leveraged these things in this conflict.

Within Pakistan, Imran Khan's politics is essentially over. His vision was inconsistent with the realities & requirements of Pakistan. Shehbaz Sharif is on track to become Pakistan's first Prime Minister to complete a five year term - something his own brother could never do - thanks to PRAGMATISM.

In re: Former Senator Mushahid Hussain

Former Senator Mushahid Hussain is essentially a hawk who even the Establishment does NOT take seriously except when they are using him.

However I do not think that they are, at this point. He is just making money as a 'tanziakar'.

That apart - he is someone who hates Hindus.

Anyone who knows me will attest that I am not fundamentally anti Pakistan. I seek out Pakistani restaurants when I go abroad & would like to visit Pakistan someday. However I have no doubt that  Mushahid Hussain is a 'GHATIYA aadmi'.

In re: Pakistan's unique position 

Pakistan is playing a much more significant role than India when it comes to the conflict in the Middle East.

There are two reasons for this

1. Iran & Pakistan are 'Biradar Mulks'. India cannot compete &

2. Pakistan generally does what the United States wants - successive Indian governments have followed impractical external affairs policies starting with non alignment & now this Vishwaguru thing.
