Arab-Israel war

 The Palestine- Israel conflict is a stark reminder of the unequal power dynamics at play in our world.It resembles a battle  between an ant & an elephant with Palestine representing the vulnerable ant while Israel mighty elephant .

Palestine, a tiny and feeble nation is courageously  fighting to free it's illegally occupied  land from cluches of Israel with unwavering support from USA& UK .While actions like Aqsa Torrent mosque desecration which is a symbol of oppression being faced by Palestine, had damaged to the already besieged Gaza strip and it's essential  to understand that the struggle is driven by the right cause and supported by those who have been victims of this extreme  brutality for the past about seven decades .
The primary cause of this conflict traces  back to 1946 when Israel was established.A small portion of Palestine was allocated as Israel by western powers.Since then Israel has continued to occupy most of the territory confining Palestine to a miniscule part.
The conflict,characterised by decades of violence, territorial disputes and political tensions continues to pose a significant threat to regional stability and regional peace .Israel has been dragging it's feet on question of Palestinian  statehood while it continues with the occupation and settlements leaving Palestine with no glimmer of hope .The west &US to continues to look the other way in connection  with Israel's gross rights violations.
THAT Hamas launched an attack on Israel is not entirely unexpected given Israel's oppression of the Palestine people US decries attack on Israel ,Egypt calls for restraint,  Iran backs Hamas .The paradox being US opposes Russian invasion of Ukraine but ignores occupation of Palestine territory. Every stake holder in this conflict sees an opportunity in this ` War', Israel wants to expand it's territory, Iran which has always shared a hostile relationship with Israel ,seems to want to prevent normalisation of Israel -Saudi ties, while US wants to support Israel since the latter is the linchpin of it's middle east strategy ,Whats curious is that India's condolences are always one sided

Arab-Israel war

 The situation in Gaza Strip is terribly disturbing but who is responsible for the present situation? THE Gazans are now paying the price for the folly and mindless acts of Hamas and are reduced to the status of helpless lambs to be slaughtered at the whims of Islam's jihadis who care two hoots about the loss of lives of women& children in the ongoing reprisal by Israel. To start With Hamas did the cruelest harakiri that Israel couldn't think of and as a follow up the latter is doing a great disservice to humanity as a whole.

The Israeli military's order for one million Palestinian people to relocate to North Gaza within 24 hours is a heartbreaking display of humanity. For half of the population in such a small area to be forced to move helter-skelter like desperate immigrants is a stain on our shared idea of civility. While the attack by Hamas on Israel is deplorable, Israel's retaliatory actions in Gaza are equally distressing. In this connection, it may be noted that a striking feature among the three latest wars- namely, Russia Ukraine, Armania-Azerbaijan, &Israel-- Palestine,-is the targeted killing of the civilian population. The long-drawn Ukraine war doesn't show signs of ending soon. And now a new outbreak of war in West Asia makes it imperative for global leaders to reset their their international priorities. THE economies of the world would be dented if the two parallel wars continued.
This is the greatest tragedy despite the world spending huge funds to run the UNO and quite a few other bodies to ensure the peaceful coexistence of people from various countries. However, the UN should have already taken steps to broker peace in the area. Its formation was primarily intended to prevent wars, protect human rights, and promote stability and peace in the world. Unfortunately, it has fallen short of achieving these objectives and instead has become a battleground for capitalist and communist powers led by the US & Russia, China, etc.

Demonetisation-Court verdict

The Govt and its supporters must have heaved a sigh of relief over the Supreme Court ‘sverdict supporting Modi’s 2016 demonetisation move .Though there won’t be effect even it were declared illegal,as the note ban is a closed chapter .The Govt’s act would have remained an illegal and illogical act in history,had it been declared otherwise.As such ,SC only upheld the legality of the Centre’s decision on Demonetisation and SC only looked into the process butit didn’t say whether the stated objectives were met or not.Iam of the considered opinion that it would be fallacious if NDAtreats the SC’s verdict on Demonetisation as some kind of political victory worthy of using it as an electoral weapon.However the court’s postfacto ruling is only of academic interest at this juncture and shouldn’t be interpreted as a judicial endorsement of the success of note ban which an EX-Minister was claiming .Infact entire country has endured enormous pain and suffering because of the ill-conceived and hastily implemented idea which proved to a spectacular disaster ,disrupting the economy and throwing millions out of jobs.

   While giving notification under RBI Act (26(2))Govt allowed 52 day period to exchange the banned notes, during which serpentine queues were common infront of nationalised banks across the country .About 200 people died due to prolonged wait before the banks.Nearly 15 crore people including petty traders ,casual labourersand thosewho are working with MSMES had suffered a lot with this sudden banning.It was felt by the people that this was undertaken to create an atmosphere through which the Assembly Elections could be won by BJP especially in UP in2017, One can never forget the pressure in the banking staff ; a few died ,some had to compensate money from their pockets ,sitting for very long hours .On theother hand the Govt couldn’t achieve its objectives for banning which included,controlling black money ,terror financing ,fake currency and promotion of digitalised transactions.Is it not a fact that Govt failed to curb black money as RS 15.31 lakh crores out of estimated black money of RS 15.41 lakh crores returned to bank ?Further there was 3 fold or 260% rise in  circulation of currency in this 7 years.In this backdrop its very unfortunate to hear from the apex court that there was no flaw legally . As I know , BJP and its supporters very well know the ground reality and must never indulge in such folly in future .Yesterday’s verdict by SCwas only to see the legality and constitutionality behind the Govt’s move , not Demonetisation per se
