#StraightFromTheHeart

The Indonesian Prime Minister Prabowo Subianto may be an admirer of @narendramodi but by the time he completed his short speech, keeping the pre-prepared speech to one side, he would have won the hearts of millions of Indians!
Not for being an admirer of @narendramodi but for the fact that he spoke with simplicity & grace, acknowledging our civilisational & cultural ties, shared DNA and being of the 3 largest democracies in the world.

THIS,is an acknowledgement -forget Modi -India has rarely received
That, this admiration & acknowledgement comes from the democraticaly elected President of the largest Muslim nation in the world gives it a RARE QUALITY and underlines possibilities when decent human beings are at the helm!

Much to learn from him.

#AmericanInnovation
Watch this video of a young American who builds on a robot created by someone else to make a kind of all-terrain transport for his immobilised Dad.

That makes one think what is it that makes America, the home of innovation.

Why are we not as innovative?

So here are a few things off the top of head. Comments, criticisms welcome.

* America has been pioneer country for much of its 200 years history.

* Huge land area, scarce population, land for the taking for those who worked hard, took huge
risks in taming the land & were absolutely self reliant.

* So they pretty much learnt to build their own houses. barns, fences for starters and over time 'fix' everything from cars to washing machines to plumbing.

* In other words, they learnt to work with their hands.

#DeadlyDrones
Hezbollah has successfully used fiber-optic (optical fiber) FPV drones against Israeli armored vehicles, including some Merkava tanks, especially during fighting in southern Lebanon in 2026.
facebook.com/share/v/1H7shd…
How they work: The drone is connected to the operator by a thin fiber-optic cable instead of a radio link.

Key advantage: Because there is no radio signal, Israeli electronic jammers cannot disrupt or detect the control link
Tactics: The drones fly very low and fast, often attacking the top of tanks, where armor is thinner.

Some have reportedly bypassed the Trophy active protection system by exploiting its limitations against such small, low-flying threats.

#LessonForSupriyaShrinate
Seychelles is a critical node in India’s maritime security architecture . Located in the Western Indian Ocean, the archipelago sits near vital sea lines of communication .
It acts as a key strategic partner for New Delhi by enabling anti-piracy operations and expanding India's strategic depth to counter regional geopolitical competition.

The strategic importance of Seychelles to India is primarily defined by the following factors:
Maritime Chokepoints: Situated on the Mascarene Plateau , Seychelles overlooks primary shipping routes used to transport energy and trade in and out of the Indian Ocean.

#WhatIndianMediaHides
How many people know that since the start of the Russo-Ukranian War

* 325,000 Russian soldiers have been killed,

* Up to 140,000 Ukrainian soldiers killed and

* Over 16,000 confirmed Ukrainian civilian deaths.
And here, even before any clear confirmation, our stupid journos act as if that is the end of the world...

But you will never learn about:

* Russian & Ukranian losses

* Iran's losses in soldiers, civilians, infra, ships...

* American losses of planes/drones/helicopters/men
This is NOT ACCIDENTAL. This is how our minds are shaped.

Actually, India WON the 4 days skirmish. We did a clean, clear, precise job and defended ourselves excellently against everything Pakistan threw at us.

#CITIZENSHIPPROOF

-The Tharoor Solution-

"The solution lies in elevating both the passport and the Aadhaar card into valid, conclusive proofs of Indian citizenship, unless explicitly
                     
ndtv.com/opinion/for-in…
cancelled, revoked, or withdrawn by a competent authority."

To make this system work without compromising national security or legal clarity, we must fix the fundamental flaw of the current Aadhaar architecture: the fact that it blends citizens and non-citizens into
an identical visual template.

The solution lies in the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) introducing a "two-tone" Aadhaar system, with a distinct visual variation for non-citizens. 

While standard citizens receive the familiar Aadhaar card, non-citizen residents

#StupidHindus
Hindus are among the stupidest people in the whole world.

They are a majority in India.

In Kashmir they are a very miniscule minority now, in the few thousands.

In 1990, there was a wave of Hinduphobic killings and threats to Hindus to convert to Islam, flee from Kashmir or be killed.

400000 Hindus left their hearths & homes, where their ancestors had lived for several thousand years, driven away by the Muslim Majority in Kashmir.
Till today, 36 years later, the Muslim Majority in Kashmir keep out Hindus from settling, thru selective threats & murders.

THE FACT OF INDIA BEING A HINDU MAJORITY STATE IS OF NO USE AGAINST A MUSLIM POPULACE WHICH IS VIRULENTLY ANTI-HINDU, PRO-JIHADI & PRO-ISLAM.
