#ConsanguineMarriages
"Research done at Quaid-i-Azam University in Islamabad (the capital of Pakistan) states that more than half of the population of Pakistan marries their first cousin."

counselling-directory.org.uk/memberarticles…
"For Pakistani families, marrying within the family guarantees that wealth/inheritance stays within the family and also ensures that family cultures and traditions are maintained."
British Pakistanis "encourage or even force their children to marry back home within the family. "Others..frown upon..British culture i.e. clubbing, dating, pre-marital sexual relationships & as a way to prevent their children from engaging,consanguineous marriages..take place.
"problem arises when the couple (related) both carry abnormal genes. If the baby inherits the gene from the father and the mother, in which case chances of the baby being born with genetic disorders will be higher, mental and or physical"

#BreakingTheShackles
It should be self-evident to the meanest intelligence that:

Any ideology or faith which requires...

Unquestioning obedience & substantially reduces individual freedom, intellectual & physical, is utterly incompatible with
where humanity stands in the 21st century.

* It is at cross- purposes and strangles the amazing possibilities for human beings, as we stand on the threshold of world-wide freedom from poverty & want.

The only choice societies and nations have is:
* Immediate acceptance of the reality and swift surgical relief from the cancer.

* Or allow our children to bear the agonies of existing in serfdom,injustice, violence & penury.

This is where Pakistan, Iran and others stand today.

#WhatModiHasDone
[Dr.Anand Ranganathan on @TimesNow 17-2-2023]

"Soros claims that Modi is anti-Muslim.

Let me educate the rancid custard, for the truth is, Modi as Prime Minister has done more for Muslims, than Hindus.
Let me explain. Has he taken control of Mosques, as he has of Hindu Temples?

No!

Has he disbanded the scholarships for Muslim students?

No!

In fact, he has given scholarships to more Muslims than Manmohan Singh did........ 2.37 crore versus 2.33 crore.
Has he overturned the Supreme Court's Sabrimala judgement to placate Hindus, like the Shah Bano judgement was overturned by the Congress, to placate Muslims?

No!

Has he reduced the Aligarh Muslim University funding?

No!

#DistortedMaps
"THE WORLD IS A LOT DIFFERENT FROM WHAT THEY TOLD YOU IN THE CLASSROOM."

"Greenland, for example, looks as large as Africa when, in reality, it is 14 times smaller!"
cntraveller.in/story/the-map-…
"Scandinavian countries seem much larger than India on the map, though the latter is thrice the size of all of them put together.

Canada is only 1.2 times the size of the US, but looks much larger"
"North America seems about as large as Africa. In reality though, you can fit the whole of United States and Canada in Africa and still have room for India, Pakistan and a few other countries."

#APrivilegedMusician
I would really love to meet privileged Brahmins.

The Brahmins who settled down in Matunga, where I grew up, were as poor as church-mice.

The Pallakadans among them, dispossessed of their lands by the Communists in Kerala thecommunemag.com/mr-tm-krishna-…
dispersed all over India with significant numbers in Mumbai, Kolkota & Delhi.

I lived for the first 44 years of my life in a 1 Room Kitchen flat in Matunga, with my parents, a brother and 2 sisters.

Unbelievably we often accommodated several more, who might have
come from the village looking for jobs. Some of them would stay on for months, till they could afford to rent a room.

We never thought of ourselves as poor. We were, I guess, middle-class by Indian standards

We consumed only two things..food & books.

"He(George's father) bought them forged papers and he bribed the government official to take 14-year-old George Soros in"
"Jews were being shipped off to the death camps, George Soros accompanied his phony Godfather on his appointed rounds, confiscating property from the Jews."
"
"And I would say that, that's when my character was made. In what way?
In that one should think ahead.. one should understand and anticipate events."

"no, no problem, no feeling of guilt. For example that I'm Jewish and here I am watching these people go"

#NewWar
If people still question the potency of 5th generation warfare & the power of internet/SM, just remember, one small researcher/short-seller company brought down the 2nd richest man in the world & diminished Adani's value by $100 billion in a few short days.
Chew on that..
It also confirms what Phantom said in the old Indrajal Comics " The bigger you are, the harder you fall."

The larger, more complex and more inter-connected society becomes..the more vulnerable it is to destruction by dis-information/mis-information/narrative building etc.
The larger, more diverse & more open democracies are, the more vulnerable they will be to attacks, internal & from outside.

The contested arena in 5th Generation warfare is nothing less than the human mind.

Opaque Dictatorships/Oligarchies, with all-of-nation strategies will
