The Indian media and social media seem to have been bewitched by some wicked magician who has made close to one billion people, the Indian working class, disappear from our minds and conscience. It is not only their pain, their exploitation that has become invisible but also their resistance to the injustice they suffer on a daily basis.
The West Bengal CPI(M) unit throwing its weight behind the BJP to overthrow Mamata Banerjee is nothing but suicidal, as the saffron party’s ascent will have far-reaching and irreversible consequences for the State’s politics, minorities, and culture.
India cannot sustain this contradiction indefinitely: a government that promotes animal welfare while presiding over the murder of the people who make the animal economy function.
Telangana’s census-scale caste survey reveals that SCs and STs are three times as backward as dominant castes, and that caste remains the principal determinant of poverty. The data challenges the basis of Economically Weaker Section reservation and makes a strong case for a nationwide caste census.
‛Extreme Heat Imperils Chronic Disease Patients in Informal Settlements’: Lack of ventilation, cooling methods, and increased susceptibility to heat make every summer dangerous for those living with chronic disease in India’s urban slums and settlements.

‛China-US “Constructive and Strategically Stable Relationship” Is Epoch-Making’; ‛A Strong Message from Beijing’; ‛Trump’s Failed China Trip Shows His Trade War Backfired, and US Corporations Are Desperate’.
‛US Imperialist War in Iran Looks Like an Economic Rescue Mission’: Strategic considerations as to U.S. economic sustainability and U.S. economic and political power in the world very likely impelled nervous U.S. decision-makers to start a war. Also: ‛War On Iran – Saudis Blame Israel – Neocon Grandee Concedes Defeat’.
‛World War Trump’: Many of the attacks by US in Somalia are crimes of war. Others are certainly extrajudicial killings—or, simply put, outright murders. Those deaths and so many others can be traced back to Donald Trump and his contempt for the lives of people across this planet. Also: ‛From Asia to the Middle East, US Bombs Are a Failed Foreign Policy Choice’.
‛Caspian Lifeline Redraws the Iran–Russia War Map’: As Washington and Tel Aviv squeeze Iran from the south, the Caspian is becoming the northern artery of a Eurasian supply network built beyond western reach. Also: ‛Pakistan Opens Iran Trade Corridor Beyond Washington’s Control’.
‛Labour’s Gaza Reckoning’; ‛Rima Hassan: The French-Palestinian MEP the Establishment Wants to Crush’; ‛In France, Pro-Palestinian Solidarity Is Being Silenced and Criminalised’; ‛National Coalition Promises to Fight Canada’s War Bank’.
