SCARY THE CIA-MI6 COUP RUINED IRAN AND HURT THE WORLD

Image
Iran and the globe were altered by Mohammad Mosaddegh. When he dared to defy the powerful British Empire, it joined forces with Uncle Sam to try to get rid of him. The main cause of problems between the US and Iran is this original sin from 1953, which sparked the Iranian Revolution in 1979. The current protests in Iran are a made of many compounding factors. it is undoubtedly true that women need greater freedoms. what's frequently left unsaid that monetary pain is using these protests. a whole lot of this pain is caused by US sanctions against Iran. at some point of these protests, a few have chanted slogans in choose of the Pahlavi dynasty. lamentably, these protesters do not understand that both father Reza Shah and son Mohammad Reza Shah could have shot them dead or arrested and tortured if they have been in electricity. In our previous article, we analyzed Mohammad Mosaddegh and the golden age of Iranian democracy. For a 12-12 months spell from 1941 to 1953, Iran experienc...

CAN HINDUTVA'S ASSERTIVENESS REPLACE AHIMSA 100 YEARS LATER

Image
This first of a three-part essay provides a summary of Hindutva's historical development and how it has changed to remain current. Hindutva resists simple classification, like everything else in India. a hundred years in the past, Hindutva changed into coined as a political ideology by way of Vinayak Damodar Savarkar of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). In 2018, the RSS leader stated that unity in variety, sacrifice, 2e6e3562d9dbc29d194484e1328ef239, and a spirit of gratitude are its defining characteristics. The RSS shapes the ideological direction of the Bharatiya Janata party (BJP), the modern birthday party in electricity in India. The RSS is the arena’s biggest voluntary NGO with sizeable grassroots appeal in India. They had been present in relief efforts for the duration of natural disasters. With over a hundred affiliates, no NGO has the size, scale, and effect that RSS has. every Hindu own family (seventy nine% of the population) along with their spouse and children...

THE REALITY OF EASTERN SPIRITUALITY'S CULTURAL APPROPRIATION BY THE WEST

Image
Eastern spiritual practises are frequently criticised in Western media. ,., and the., and the., and the s., and the s... the. of of the world. a,d They exploit vulnerable people seeking refuge in their own communities and engage in cultural appropriation. “subject matters like everything is hooked up, not anything happens without a motive, and nothing is what it seems are imperative to each yoga philosophy and conspiratorial thinking.” while NPR wrote about a yoga guru in the US who also became out to be a QAnon believer, a far-proper conspiracy concept cult, it regarded ordinary that the writer and experts critiquing the talk must have made the above claim. due to the fact after all, what does the instinct for paranoia or delusional wondering ought to do with the topics of interconnectedness that one encounters in eastern notion as well as quantum physics? As far as obvious correlations go, that is tenuous at first-class besides if the writer too became subconsciously biased toward...

THE SURPRISING REALITY OF CONSCIOUS MACHINES IS MIND-BLOWING

Image
Artificial intelligence (AI) is advancing to previously unheard-of levels of inventiveness, which has sparked discussion about what it means to be human and whether or not the continuous growth of AI poses a threat to the survival of the human race. In his 2012 book How to Create a Mind, futurist Ray Kurzweil predicts that computers will one day have "an intelligence indistinguishable from biological humans." He estimates  this will happen by 2029 and expects that by 2045 "we will have multiplied the intelligence , the human biological machine intelligence of our civilization, a billion times over". Kurzweil believes  this explosion in computing innovation will eventually lead to a seamless connection between humans and machines.  Kurzweil is considered by many to be the world's greatest technology prophet, known for his seminal books such as The Age of Intelligent Machines (1990), The Age of Spiritual Machines (1999) and The Singularity is Near (2005). In his ...

TO BE RELEVANT, INDIA'S SECULARISM REQUIRES BETTER INTERPRETATION.

Image
This article's second of three parts discusses Indian secularism and its distinctive features. The paper argues that this secularism must be applicable in the context of a nation with a predominance of Hindus that was formerly a colony. Jawaharlal Nehru's secular India was largely descended from our colonial masters and rooted only  in the big cities. This was at odds with a predominantly Hindu population that had been ruled by outsiders – Islamic and British invaders – for 1,200 years. Prime Minister Narendra Modi calls it "1,200 years of slave mentality". Therefore, secularism must recognize the legitimate and unmet needs of its predominantly Hindu population. Contrary to what the New York Times invariably claims, Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) rectifies Nehruvian excesses rather than enforcing majority rules. How to Make Indian Secularism Work  The idea of ​​secularism enshrined in the Indian Constitution is admirable. This means that all religions are t...

WHY IS INDIA ATTRACTING A FLOOD OF FOREIGN INVESTMENT?

Image
At a time when the economy is contracting, record foreign investment creates the groundwork for a growth boom, higher employment, and stronger domestic demand. Over the years, India has suffered from so-called “Hindu growth rates” due to  the political decisions of Jawaharlal Nehru. India's first prime minister was fascinated by the Soviet Union and a supporter of socialism. In India, this socialist economic model was  implemented absurdly by the colonial bureaucracy with a bureaucratic bias.  As a result, an oasis of licenses, quotas and permits, a system in which bureaucrats commanded and controlled the Indian economy through Byzantine regulations, stifled growth for decades. As the Soviet model began to unravel in 1989, the Indian economy came under increasing pressure.The balance of payments crisis led to  economic reforms in 1991. After that, India experienced a steady growth of more than 5% per year until 2019.  During the COVID-19 pandemic, this growth...

INDIA NEEDS TO SUPPORT AFGHANS BATTLING THE TALIBAN.

Image
The Pakistan-backed Taliban will target India sooner rather than later, hence it is crucial for New Delhi to help courageous Afghans against the new government in Kabul. Kabul has fallen again to the Taliban. Unexpectedly, so has the Panjshir Valley where the fabulous Ahmad Shah Massoud defied both the Soviets and the Taliban. Indeed more unexpectedly, India has stayed silent so far.    It was in 1996 that the Taliban took over Kabul the last time around. Following a interpretation of extreme Islam, it unleashed a reign of terror in Afghanistan. It also exported terror to India. It transferred jihadi fighters in the form of the mujahideen to liberate Kashmir.    There's one event that's etched in the memory of the region and must surely be unforgettable in the Indian knowledge. On December 24, 1999, five terrorists commandeered a aeroplane  from India and forced the airman to fly it to Kandahar. The Taliban fighters girdled the aeroplane  to help Indian ...
