Russia was left with no choice but to take strong action in Ukraine to prevent its becoming a NATO member, and to end the genocide of Russian-speaking people in the Donbass region. Moscow will not allow NATO troops on its borders, period!
Israel is supposed to be the state for all Jewish people while America is supposedly the land of opportunity where everyone chases the American dream. Neither Israel nor America seems to live up to their contrived image. There is an exodus of people from both, debunking their myths.
With nearly 1.2 billion people already facing hunger and starvation, the conflict in Ukraine has created food insecurity for hundreds of millions of other people. This is because both Ukraine and Russia are grain producing countries. The war has disrupted shipment of grain

The hatred of western politicians toward Islam and Muslims is reflected in their sacrilegious acts of Qur’an-burning. While such acts arouse the Muslims’ deep anguish, deep down they represent the pathetic intolerant state of western politics.
Russia’s “special military operations” in Ukraine appear to be on track to achieve their objectives. The flooding of weapons and mercenaries into Ukraine seem not to have made much of a difference. America’s belligerent policy has also exposed cracks in the NATO alliance.
The ulama in Iran have managed to achieve remarkable success in managing their foreign policy while the Kremlin has failed despite being familiar with international politics for far longer than the men with turbans.
While a fragile ceasefire, brokered by the UN has gone into effect in Yemen, will it last is the big question on everyone’s mind.
It is interesting to note so much breast-beating for the plight of Ukrainians facing Russia’s military onslaught, but the same western do-gooders are actively pursuing a policy to starve the poor people of Afghanistan. The UN says, 97% of its population could face starvation. This is a crime against humanity
When the resolution to declare March 15 as the UN day to condemn Islamophobia was presented in the General Assembly, France, the EU and India opposed it.

Another report, this one by the UN Special Rapporteur on Palestine confirms yet again that zionist Israel is an apartheid state. Its horrific crimes against Palestinians are methodically documented to expose the brutal nature of the zionist regime.
France will hold presidential elections on April 10.

Saudi Arabia’s de facto ruler Mohammad bin Salman (MbS) refused to take a phone call from US President Joe Biden because he has called him a “pariah”. Biden wants the Saudis and Emiratis to increase oil production because of sanctions on Russian oil and gas. How long can MbS hold out against Biden?
Westoxicated women in Pakistan have been holding ‘Aurat March’ (Women’s March) since 2018. While some of their demands are legitimate, others are extremely offensive like “my body, my choice”. This goes against the ethos of the vast majority of people. This year, however, hijab-clad women challenged this offensive narrative.
The US-led NATO kept pushing its eastward expansion until Russian President Vladimir Putin ran out of patience. He has shown that he will not tolerate NATO forces and weapons on his border in Ukraine and insists on making Ukraine a “neutral” country a la Finland. He seems to be nearing his objectives.
