Weird question comes to mind. Who on earth carries tomatoes and eggs to a march? Some people must have known in advance that Bilawal was going to speak, or maybe they were lucky to find nearby stores when Bilawal showed up on stage. Anyway, it's a good message by the people of Pakistan to the...

I was talking more about secularism than democracy. I don't doubt that democracy is defended fiercely in India, but secularism can be subverted by promoting religious agendas in a cultural garb.

China is a major power which has the resources to address this issue as it sees fit. The Palestinians are in no position to counter or resist Israel. It is this gross disparity which makes the Israel/Palestine cause akin to what happened in South Africa. Anybody can deal with Israel as they...

I don't know about the US but, in Australia, top secret clearance is only valid for two years. So how is this guy getting all this inside info after being retired for -- how many? -- years? Secondly, this video is just a patriotic psyops service by him to reinforce the UFO cover around secret...

I am not aware of any other country, formed in the modern post-colonial era, which was formed by millions of racist invaders displacing the local population with the explicit aim of establishing a country with their racial demographics. The UN resolutions were not a prerequisite for people to...

The OP clearly says "the stall of Israel was arranged without permission of university administration,". Other stalls are irrelevant: if someone complained about them and they were illegally set up, they would need to be torn down also.

The Nobel Peace Prize Commitee became a laughing stock when they awarded it to Obomber just for getting elected.

I suggest you go back and read why the (real) UN recommended cultural isolation of South Africa. I also suggest you educate yourself on how to conduct a debate instead of foaming at the mouth and yelling Islamist and hatred at anyone who disagrees with you..

Zionism is racism. Opposing racism is not hatred. It is the supporters of racism who are the prejudiced ones. There is a reason why Israel was the chief weapons supplier to apartheid-era South Africa, and why Nelson Mandela equated Israel to apartheid-era South Africa.

I doubt Bilawal 'does' anything by himself. His handlers manage him: telling him what to say, what to wear, what to tweet. He is a figurehead, a packaged product to suck up the Bhutto mystique. Behind him are the faceless men who stand ready to plunder Pakistan as usual.

I fully accept the fact that many people -- Hindu and non-Hindu -- voted for BJP for governance, not anti-Muslim agenda. However, my comment applies irrespective of BJP. India has been under foreign domination for centuries and the liberation and rise of India coincides with people's pride in...

Read the thread before commenting. Everyone deplores any illegal activity by protesters, but the fact remains that excluding Israel from the exhibition is a perfectly reasonable option. The UN encouraged cultural isolation of apartheid-era South Africa, and Israel's racist policies deserve no...

While there has been a lot of discussion of the historical context, I am more interested in the future trends. I see the rise of India's power being mirrored by the rise of Hindu nationalism. To some extent, that is fine and Hindus have every right to be proud. But I expect, this will lead to...

Yes, I have attended MUN events. It is as I described: an academic exercise for students to learn about and 'play' UN.

He jumped in, huffing and puffing, castigating the evil Muslims as usual. Only he didn't have a clue about the UN's stance on apartheid-era South Africa, and is now desperately playing with words to salvage himself.

The Model UN is designed as an academic exercise for students modeled after the real UN. The real UN takes a stand against countries espousing racist ideologies, so it's not unreasonable for the model UN to do likewise. I am enjoying your intellectual dance to squirm out of the hole into which...

The thread is about Israel and MUN, and I gave a comparative analogy of South Africa and UN. The relevance is obvious to anyone who is intellectually honest.

Nonsense! I compared Israel to South Africa long ago, and I mentioned the reaction of the international community to apartheid-era South Africa. You are just throwing your usual tantrum and looking for a way out now that your ignorance and bias has been exposed.

MUN is Model United Nations, which is an academic exercise along the lines of UN. I showed you how the real UN handled a country espousing racist ideologies. The one in need of education here is YOU.

Never mind the MUN, let's see what the actual UN did to apartheid-era South Africa. Let your education begin. Apartheid - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In 1962, the UN General Assembly requested that its members sever political, fiscal and transportation ties with South Africa. In 1968, it...
