A deafening silence, inexplicable and inexcusable aberration

The barbarity of crimes being committed by the Israel government in Gaza is shocking to say the list. The perpetrators had predecessors in Germany who were subjected to the same inhuman brutality, in Hitler's Germany, during the'holocaust' as it is labelled. I just can't understand how they're commiting such horrific crimes against civilians, journalists, doctors, women and children. The jews were settlers. They still are no matter what you say. Look what you're doing today, with the help of some Western powers, to whom war is business. And Germany, perhaps still suffering from memories of their dark past are prepared to go along with people like Netanyahu, who has been declared a war criminal. All powers helping Israel today are complicit in crimes against humanity, in aiding genocide and ethnic cleansing. History will never forgive them.

Code switching

First words

As I'm a bilingual, I often wonder what's the harm if I switch to my mother tongue (Bengali  or Bangla) at times. No I'm not comfortable with code mixing, it's code switching that I have in mind.

Making our world more liveable, governable.

My thoughts of the day
Waiting for the day when genuine do-gooders, idealists, good Samaritans, incorruptible GENTLEMEN, sensitive yet skeptic, nationalists, good listeners but iconoclasts, friend-in-need of India's poor and dispossessed will come into politics. Really fed up with glamour boys and glamour girls -- with nothing but their celebrity status on display -- asking for our votes. When will our voters cry: ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. A blot on the collective wisdom of Indians and a drain on the exchequer.

When voted to power, the first thing they'll do is to legislate for their own pay-hike and cow-tow before big businessman and corporates or managers of shady wheeler-dealers. No longer hearing about the RIGHT TO RECALL. Is AAP, Congress and BJP listening?
