The less said about Indian TV news the better.

Same with India. It is especially funny given our background and also explains why we can be comically bad at counter-insurgency at times.

Are you thinking of Generation Kill?

Hey I love pearl jam and everything grunge. This is blasphemy.

Oh you should definitely watch the movie and the third season. The best is yet to come.

Sheikh Hasina rejected US advances to put a military base on St Martin’s island. She has also been quite friendly to China. Plus she has long been purging BNP and Jamat leaders, both of whom have US backing.

Which is exactly why China only claims it and doesn’t hold it. They had occupied all of it way back in the 62 war and would’ve held on to it if it made sense. At this point, the claim is just a pressure tactic against an India that regularly takes potshots at China to impress US.

Militancy is spiking in Indian occupied Kashmir and even overflowing to Jammu now. There are rumours that Pakistan has returned to it’s original master for alms and they are making Pakistan ramp up militancy to destabilise CPEC/BRI projects in the region. That’s the reason for the thaw, there’s a new frontier opening up for both India and China. I highly doubt any similar thawing between Indian and Pakistan is possible in the near future. Or any future, for that matter, where the military establishment in Pakistan hasn’t been decapitated.

Kamala is just the feminisation of Kamal, since Kamal is a male name.

Kamala (कमला) here means Lotus. It is a common Indian name.
