Almost 20 years ago, the United States and its allies invaded Afghanistan to root out Al Qaeda and Taliban, as a response to horrific and brutal 9/11 terrorists’ attacks against the United States in 2001.

17:15

Before pandemic without restrictions or lockdowns, I rarely paid any attention to the rabbit hole that is reality television. I had watched a few episodes of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, very early on, in 2009 or 2010 and decided it was not for me, but every now and then read about them and admired their brilliant marketing and public relations…

First topic that I want to discuss is, Emmanuel Macron, the President of French Republic, claims to be a champion of free speech, in an interview to Al Jazeera in October 2020, he had said “I will always defend in my country the freedom to speak, to write, to think, to draw”.

3 Political Players from Global South: "Saints" or "Sinners"? 20:35

3+ y ago20:35

20:35

from time to time, we, in the western liberal democracies, mostly with the best of intentions, from our ivory towers, pick sides rather easily when it comes to politics of Global South, without fully understanding the complexities. Don’t believe me? Think about the co-operation that took place between former dictator of Pakistan, Musharraf and the …

17:47

I was scrolling through my twitter feed and came across tweets where some (not all) American progressives were quoting their intelligence community to demonstrate how bad the former President of the United States, Donald Trump, was.
