- The people of #India live on the frontlines in the war on terror. They have experienced unspeakable atrocities in places like Kashmir, horrific terror in places like Mumbai. Indiaโs solidarity with #Israel is truly heartfelt and truly appreciated. #IndiaStandsWithIsrael ๐ฎ๐ณ ๐ฎ๐ฑDeeply shocked by the news of terrorist attacks in Israel. Our thoughts and prayers are with the innocent victims and their families. We stand in solidarity with Israel at this difficult hour.
- Modi's win was a rejection not only of the dynasty but of the colonial Brits, who tried to teach Hindus to be ashamed of their culture.
- It was the Muslims who demanded the partition to create the Muslim state of Pakistan. Tens of millions of Muslims stayed in India after the partition and their percentage of Indiaโs population has climbed steadily ever since. The percentage of minorities in Pakistan, meanwhile,Replying to @DavidBCohen1 and @NiohBergAt the same token, many Muslims were displaced from their indigenous ancestral lands in India and were moved to Pakistan. Imperialism failed again.
- Replying to @joseletemunizBut the larger lady here is actually Gabi Garcia, who is not trans.
- Outrageous to blast @isro Chairman K Sivan for offering prayers ahead of #Chandrayaan-2 launch. No one would call a NASA chief "superstitious" for offering a prayer before an important mission. Kudos to #ISRO for honoring Indian traditions. outlookindia.com/website/story/โฆ
- Hindi Yahudi Bhai Bhai.Israel may not have diplomatic ties with Pakistan. Yet bombs from Israel did find their way into heart of Pakistan via India this morning. Read the technical details from my dear friend @sneheshphilip theprint.in/defence/iafs-bโฆ
- Thank you, #India, for the positive influence that you have had on the world, and for the refuge and acceptance that you have unstintingly granted to those fleeing intolerance and persecution (including #Jews!). May more learn from your example. #HappyIndependenceDay
- As much as Iโd love to see #India join the effort to isolate Putin, I completely understand and respect Indiaโs position and donโt think the West is in any position to lecture India about it.
- #India accepted Jews, just as they accepted many others fleeing religious persecution. One of the few places in diaspora where Jews were not persecuted by the majority population. @Claire_VoltaireI'm gonna say this once and I will not get into long arguments here over this. Which Jew was accepted anywhere? Tell me, which country accepted Jews? We were kicked out of our homeland which started 2000 years of diaspora all over the world. 2000 years of persecution. 1/
- Line from @spacemomsmovie: โSpace exploration is in the Indian DNA.โ Another line (woman talking about her granddaughter): โSheโs going to ace [her exam]. Science is in her blood.โ Kudos to @NASA interns Pratima Roy and Pooja Roy for embodying the spirit of #SpaceMOMs!
- Yeah, Iโm sure he was a budding Mahatma until that incident and did absolutely nothing to deserve it."Pulwama bomber Adil Ahmad Dar became terrorist after he was beaten by troops". It's imp to understand why so many young men in Kashmir are becoming militants&willing to die. Even US forces couldn't hold Afghanistan & Iraq after large-scale suicide attacks indiatoday.in/india/story/puโฆ
