The changing fortunes of Israel

The younger, more militant leaders, like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, also firmly stood by Omar. What these indicate is that the mood of public opinion about Israel in America is undergoing a change. Earlier, sharp criticism of Israel in the US was largely restricted to campus activists or sectarian ultra-leftists who were largely insignificant in affecting any serious matters of foreign policy of the State. Now however, elected representatives of the American people, not to mention someone like Sanders, a president hopeful and arguably the strongest democratic socialist leader that America has seen, are voicing criticisms of Israel that a decade ago would have been shot-down without discussion. That these opinions are largely accepted and defended by the supporters of these leaders must cause much worry to Israel. The US, after all, is currently the only superpower that routinely defends Israel unconditionally at the United Nations. It has to be granted that there is much hypocrisy in t...

Want to help fight climate change? Have more children

Obviously, the wealthier and more populous America is a more likely source of technological innovation, even though it is also a more significant source of greenhouse gases. So if you think progress in this fight is possible at all, you ought to be betting on the more populous nations. By having more children, you are making your nation more populous — thus boosting its capacity to solve the problem. But even if your kid doesn't grow up to be a leading scientist or environmental crusader, she may still have a real impact. More people, according to Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Romer, create bigger markets for innovations. There are more medicines for common diseases than for rare diseases, precisely because market size is larger. By having more kids, you are increasing the demand for remedies to climate change. For instance, there are significant fixed costs to coming up with higher-quality electric cars or better solar panels. Investors put money into these areas only becaus...

Those who call themselves chowkidars can go to any length, and peddle lies, to cling on to power," he alleged. He claimed only the SP-BSP alliance was strong enough to stop the BJP from winning over 5-7 seats in Maharashtra.

"However, after our decision to contest all 48 seats, a third front will be available. We represent 85-90 per cent of society," he claimed. Azmi said discussions on the seat-sharing formula was yet to begin between the two parties and a committee had been formed to take it forward. The formula would be announced in two to three days, he asserted. He added that no other party had approached them as yet to be part of the alliance. BSP MP Ashok Siddharth alleged the Congress' policies for Muslims, Dalits and backward classes remained on paper and could not penetra...

Eva Green says James Bond should always be played by a man, 'doesn't make sense for him to be a woman'

Some actors and fans are in favour of a gender swap as they believe it is time for a female actor to take on the role, created by Ian Fleming. "I'm for women, but I really think James Bond should remain a man. It doesn't make sense for him to be a woman. Women can play different types of characters, be in action movies, and be superheroes, but James Bond should always be a man and not be Jane Bond. There is history with the character that should continue. He should be played by a man," Green told Vanity Fair on the Dumbo red carpet. Cast member Eva Green poses at the premiere for the movie Dumbo in Los Angeles.
