Clueless Congress

It would’ve been more appropriate if Subash Kak had titled his article as Cluless Congress. Ever since they’ve occupied the throne, the Congress has done everything but govern. The Sonia affair, the Irshat Jahan imbroglio, populism in Andhra, targetting of the Gujarat government, Sonia’s I’m-above-the-law announcement of providing relief to victims of the Tamil Nadu [...]

Allah Free Thy Children

Nitin has a lovely entry on Nutwar and his deputy, Ahamed’s idiocy with respect to their efforts in getting Indian hostages freed from the clutches of terrorists Allah’s Soldiers. This one is priceless!
Unfortunately, invoking the Almighty and resorting to Indian fatalism makes very bad security policy. And what if the Iraqi insurgents decide to [...]

Dar-ul-Europe: A Fast-Becoming Reality

Bat Ye?or, renowned author of two prominent books on Islam and the West, cautions us against what he calls Eurabia.
In fact, the EU has been completing a slow metamorphosis into the “Christian” arm of the Pan-Arab world, different in religious observation (or lack of same) but united in its views of Israel and America.
The reasons [...]

More on History Rewriting

Sandhya Jain has an interesting op-ed about the endless debate on history rewriting. She says that Indian history is now in the hands of the “hunted” that is, Indian history has till now, been written from the victor’s perspective which naturally glorifies the victor and paints the victim as bad, or deserving the fall.
What’s [...]

Bravo Om Puri

Trust our assortment of Leftists, pseudo leaders, littérateurs, self-proclaimed intellectuals, and the whole moronic brigade to scale greater heights on the Ladder of Insanity. How does the act of Om Puri receiving the (prestigious?) Order of British Empire (OBE) award translate into serving colonial interests? And who are these eminences?

Satish Kalsekar (never heard of [...]

My Political Leaning

Just for the heck of it, I took this now-old quiz. The results surprised me. See the graphic below.

I’m supposed to be a Libertarian. Is the cartel listening???

Beautifully Put

The finance minister of India is a coward. Or the Left Front must get ready to pull down the Manmohan Singh ministry.
Thus starts a well-written article by TVR Shenoy. Shenoy has never hidden the fact that he is an avid opponent of the Congress and the Left. He calls the various bluffs of the UPA [...]

Sibu Soren a Cheap Criminal Art Thou

The UPA government knows no shame is all I can say at this disgusting turn of events. Sibu Soren, Union Minister of Coal and Mines has been issued an arrest warrant and has ever since, absconded.
Like a cheap criminal.
Instead of adopting the infamous Congress line of “I’ll surely go to prison if only [...]

What’s there to Debate about Reservation?

Vir Sanghvi writes serious stuff when he finds time from amusing people with his views on building egalitarian societies. This time around, he examines the Reservations issue, which has raised its ugly head. He wants to call a debate to see whether Reservations are still needed; he wants to go back to the basics.
One of [...]

Physician Heal Thyself

This may not be the first case of suicide on-campus nor will it be the last. But going by the cause(s), it needs at the least, a sympathetic hearing, and thorough investigation. From what I can make of it, Dr. Rachit seems to have undergone tremendous humiliation from his superiors, and this is what caused [...]
