The tragic loss of 13 #UnitedStates service personnel killed in the craven suicide bomb attack at #Kabul Airport marked a watershed moment in the War on Terror.
 
This pusillanimous act of Jihadism is the deadliest
since 30 U.S soldiers lost their lives when their Chinook helicopter was brought down by the #Taliban in August 2011, and their selfless sacrifice is the first to be recorded since Army Special Forces Sergeants 1st Class Javier Gutierrez and Antonio Rodriguez
were murdered by a turncoat of the #Afghan National Army in February 2020.  

Not only does this bombing demonstrate the clear sense of weakness the Islamists detect in the West, but it also illustrates how this weakness is now enabling
Islamic #terrorist groups to open a new chapter in this “forever war”.

As stated by the Saudi political analyst, Jameel Al-Theyabi, “the Biden Administration’s steps in #Afghanistan have caused this violence.
Afghanistan is in the grip of the Taliban because of the recklessness of his withdrawal, and it is because of the Taliban’s support for extremist and terrorist groups that these attacks will be permitted not just in Afghanistan, but throughout the world.”
“Joe Biden”, Jameel went onto say, “took a weapon and shot himself in the foot because his actions have allowed Afghanistan to be used again as a gathering point for Islamic terrorists and their affiliates."
As a result, the pendulum in this conflict has now swung heavily in favor of radicalized Muslims whose strict interpretation of Islamic ideology provides them with the supposed moral justification to employ violence to convert; enslave, or kill those they regard as “kafir”.
Having expressed that it is only a matter of time before these radicalized Muslims utilize their newly established “gathering point” to “plunge Afghanistan and the Middle East into a bloodbath”, Jameel concluded by articulating that the only way to prevent this "blood bath"
from spilling over into the West is for the United States.
its friends, and allies, to show leadership by“confronting violent #Islamist groups and extremism, and also to confront the countries that support these organizations - regardless of the complexity and difficulty
involved.”

No one denies that Jameel is quite right when he accentuates a show of leadership is needed to confront this growing existential threat to Western civilization.
It just proves regrettable that for as well-substantiated as Jameel’s analysis can be credited to be, that the show of leadership he says is needed is beyond the realm of reason given the woeful inability of #JoeBiden to lead.

Almost 24 hours after the last American airplane departed #Kabul, Joe Biden appeared before the White House press corps to declare his evacuation airlift would be remembered as an “extraordinary success.”
Other than his noteworthy observation acknowledging that the mission would not have been possible without “the incredible skill, bravery, and selfless courage of the United States military”, the rest of Biden’s address was characteristically delusional.
Some people have suggested that this latest example of his self-delusion vindicates the long-standing suspicion that the 78-year-old is in the throes of his cognitive decline.
 
Most would be quite right to agree with this assessment.

Prime Minister! Prime Lens!!
On records, he is still the youngest Prime Minister of the India.
As of now, he was the last member of the Nehru-Gandhi family to hold the position of prime minister in India. He took the position at the young age of 40.
A reluctant entrant into the political arena, Gandhi was a pilot before he joined politics and showed barely any interest in following the footsteps of his mother and grandfather.

From engineer to pilot
After completing his A-levels in London,
Rajiv Gandhi went on to study engineering at Trinity College in Cambridge.However, after studying there for three years, he did not obtain a degree. He went on to study mechanical engineering at Imperial College London but did not complete that either.

विसंस्कृतीचं दर्शन घडवणारा देश म्हणजे आपला भारत देश. त्यातल्या त्यात आपण भारतीय म्हणजे सण आणि उत्सव प्रिय आहोतच. विविध संस्कृतीने, विविध चालीरीतींनी, धार्मिक रूढी, धार्मिक परंपरांनी नटलेला आपला देश आहे.

खान्देशी संस्कृती तर विचारायलाच नको. खान्देश हा प्रांत उत्तर भारत आणि दक्षिण भारत यांच्या सरहद्दीवर पसरलेला आहे. पूर्वी म्हणे या भागात ‘कान’ नावाच्या राजाचे साम्राज्य होते. म्हणून या भागाची ओळख ‘कानदेश’ अशी होती.

कालांतराने कानदेशाचं रूपांतर खान्देश म्हणून झालं असावं किंवा त्याचा अपभ्रंश झाला असावा, असा एक तर्क आहे. काही ठिकाणी तर असेही वाचायला मिळाले की, खान्देशात पूर्वी ‘आहेर’ राजा होऊन गेला आणि त्याच कालावधीत ‘अहिराणी’ भाषेचा उगम झाला.
