At least it looks that forces; it is a struggle with organized globalists who have way to any rational person surveying the very real, identifiable, powerful organizations and networks escalating revolutions that have engulfed the planet in the year 2020. The revolu- operating incessantly to undermine and subvert our tions to which we refer are the COVID- constitutional Republic and our Christian-style civilization. 19 revolution and the Black Lives Matter revolution, which, combined, are wreak- ing unprecedented havoc and destruction — political, social, economic, moral, and spiritual — worldwide. As we will show, these two seemingly unrelated upheavals are very closely tied together, and are but the latest and most profound manifesta- tions of a global revolutionary transfor- mation that has been under way for many years. Both of these revolutions are being stoked and orchestrated by elitist forces that intend to unmake the United States of America and extinguish liberty as we know it everywhere. In his famous “Lectures on the French Revolution,” delivered at Cambridge University between 1895 and 1899, the distinguished British historian and states- man John Emerich Dalberg, more com- monly known as Lord Acton, noted: “The appalling thing in the French Revolution is not the tumult, but the design. Through all the fire and smoke we perceive the evidence of calculating organization.

  • Division of India; Indian and Pakistan Independent Dimensions
    © 2020 IJRAR April 2020, Volume 7, Issue 2 www.ijrar.org (E-ISSN 2348-1269, P- ISSN 2349-5138) Division of India; Indian and Pakistan Independent Dimensions – An overview *Nagaratna.B.Tamminal, Asst Professor of History, Govt First Grade Womens’s College, Koppal. Abstract Present paper takes a broad overview of independence on Indian subcontinent particularly India and Pakistan in their subsequent post independence dimensions. In August, 1947, when, after three hundred years in India, the British finally left, the subcontinent was partitioned into two independent nation states: Hindu-majority India and Muslim-majority Pakistan. Immediately, there began one of the greatest migrations in human history, as millions of Muslims trekked to West and East Pakistan (the latter now known as Bangladesh) while millions of Hindus and Sikhs headed in the opposite direction. Many hundreds of thousands never made it.Across the Indian subcontinent, communities that had coexisted for almost a millennium attacked each other in a terrifying outbreak of sectarian violence, with Hindus and Sikhs on one side and Muslims on the other—a mutual genocide as unexpected as it was unprecedented. In Punjab and Bengal—provinces abutting India’s borders with West and East Pakistan, respectively—the carnage was especially intense, with massacres, arson, forced conversions, mass abductions, and savage sexual violence. Some seventy-five thousand women were raped, and many of them were then disfigured or dismembered. Nisid Hajari, in “Midnight’s Furies” (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt), his fast-paced new narrative history of Partition and its aftermath, writes, “Gangs of killers set whole villages aflame, hacking to death men and children and the aged while carrying off young women to be raped.

  • Ang Lee's Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
    The Global Return of the Wu Xia Pian (Chinese Sword-Fighting Movie): Ang Lee’s Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon by Kenneth Chan Abstract: In examining the way Ang Lee’s Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon grapples with cultural identity and Chineseness, this essay considers Lee’s construction of an image of “China” in the film, as well as its feminist possibilities. These readings reveal Lee’s conflicted critique of traditional Chinese cultural centrism and patri- archal hegemony. The wu xia pian, or Chinese sword-fighting movie, occupies a special place in the cultural memory of my childhood.1 Growing up in the late 1970s and early 1980s in Singapore, I remember with great fondness escaping from the British-based education system I attended and from the blazing heat of the tropical sun to the air-conditioned coolness of the neighborhood cinema. (This was long before cineplexes became fashionable.) Inevitably, a sword-fighting or kung fu flick from Hong Kong would be screening. The exoticism of one-armed swordsmen, fighting Shaolin monks, and women warriors careening weightlessly across the screen in- formed my sense and (mis)understanding of Chinese culture, values, and notions of “Chineseness” more radically than any Chinese-language lessons in school could have. The ideological impact of this genre should clearly not be underestimated, as cinematic fantasy is sutured into the cultural and political imaginary of China, particularly for the Chinese in diaspora.2 Like many moviegoers of Chinese ethnicity, I responded to Ang Lee’s cin- ematic epic Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000) with genuine enthusiasm and anticipation.

    HEADQUARTERS GAZETTE SOCIETY FOR MILITARY HISTORY VOL. 32, NO. 2 SUMMER 2019 SMH 2020 CALL FOR PAPERS 87th Annual Meeting of the Society for Military History “Policy by Other Means” April 30-May 3, 2020 Hosted by the Army Historical Foundation The Society for Military History is pleased to announce a call for papers for its 87th Annual Meeting, hosted by the Army Historical Foundation in Arlington, VA. For the 2020 meeting, the Program Committee will consider paper and panel proposals on all aspects of military history, especially encouraging submissions that reflect on this year’s theme, Policy by Other Means. We invite submissions that examine war and other military operations as instruments of policy, to include topics such as grand strategy, coalition warfare, military diplomacy, humanitarian interventions, peacekeeping and nation building, military occupation and government, and “gray zone” competition, as well as the pursuit of domestic policy objectives via military means. While submissions that address the conference theme are encouraged, submissions that focus on other topics will also be entertained by the Program Committee. Submissions of pre-organized panels and roundtables are strongly encouraged and will be given preference in the selection process. Panel, paper, and poster proposals will clearly explain their topics and questions in ways that will be understandable to the broad membership of the SMH, not only to those interested in the specific topics in question. Additionally, the SMH encourages the representation of the full diversity of its membership and especially values panel and roundtable proposals that reflect the organization’s diversity of institutional affiliations, various career paths and ranks, gender, race, and ethnicity.

  • Winners of the Overseas Press Club Awards
    2010 dateline SPECIAL EDITION CARACAS, VENEZUELA WINNERS OF THE OVERSEAS PRESS CLUB AWARDS dateline 2010 1 LETTERFROM THE PRESIDENT t the Overseas Press Club of America, we are marching through our 71st year insisting that fact-based, hard-news reporting from abroad is more important than ever. As we salute the winners of our 20 awards, I am proud to say their work is a tribute to the public’s right to know. As new forms of communication erupt, the incessant drumbeat of the A24-hour news cycle threatens to overwhelm the public desire for information by swamping readers and viewers with instant mediocrity. Our brave winners – and IS PROUD the news organizations that support them – reject the temptation to oversimplify, trivialize and then abandon important events as old news. For them, and for the OPC, the earthquakes in Haiti and Chile, the shifting fronts in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iraq, the drug wars of Mexico and genocides and commodity grabs in Africa need to be covered thoroughly and with integrity. TO SUPPORT The OPC believes quality journalism will create its own market. In spite of the decimation of the traditional news business, worthwhile journalism can and will survive. Creators of real news will get paid a living wage and the young who desire to quest for the truth will still find journalism viable as a proud profession and a civic good. We back that belief with our OPC Foundation, which awards 12 scholarships a year to deserving students who express their desire to become foreign correspondents while submitting essays on international subjects.

Twice each year since 2010, the Forum has convened government officials, intellectuals, media commentators and business representatives for an intimate conversation on shared political, social and economic objectives as well as the implications of India's rise for the transatlantic community. The Forum has been held in Europe (Stockholm and London), and in three cities in India (New Delhi, Mumbai and Bengaluru). In 13 editions over eight years, the Forum has engaged over 350 key individuals, including leading politicians and government officials, influential columnists, representatives from top businesses, and renowned policy experts from India, the United States and Europe. Format The café-style format of the forum is designed to create a conversation between peers. While panellists are expected to help lead the conversation, they are only asked to give scene-setting remarks of around five to seven minutes, preserving the majority of the session for an open back and forth between all of the participants in the room. India Trilateral Forum is held under the Chatham House Rule, which states: When a meeting, or part thereof, is held under the Chatham House Rule, participants are free to use the information received, but neither the identity nor the affiliation of the speaker(s), nor that of any other participant, may be revealed.

  • JUE Volume 11 Issue 1, 2021 38
    “We are similar, but different”: Contextualizing the Religious Identities of Indian and Pakistani Immigrant Groups Ravi Sadhu Claremont McKenna College, [email protected] ABSTRACT This article explores how Indian and Pakistani immigrant groups from the Bay Area in North California relate to and interact with one another. There is limited research on the role of religion in shaping sentiments of distinctiveness or “groupness” among diasporic Indians and Pakistanis in the UK and North America. Through conducting qualitative interviews with 18 Indian and Pakistani immigrants in the Bay Area, I recognized three factors pertaining to religion that were salient in influencing notions of groupness—notions of modernity, sociopolitical factors, and rituals. With respect to these three variables, I flesh out the spectrum of associated groupness; while some factors were linked with high levels of groupness, others enabled the immigrant groups to find commonality with one another. This research is integral to a better understanding of the interactions between South Asians in the diaspora, as well as to gain insight into how these immigrant groups—whose countries of origin share a history of religious conflict—perceive and interact with one another. Keywords: Indian-Pakistani immigrant interactions; religious othering; Hindu-Muslim relations ISSN 2369-8721 | The JUE Volume 11 Issue 1, 2021 38 India and Pakistan swiftly moved to consolidate their nations and to define themselves as autonomous states using all the national apparel they could muster.… None of this is too surprising, but the ‘other’ state necessarily became an object of comparison, a counterpoint, and was, to a greater or lesser e share the same food, same extent, vilified in the process” (208).
