ON February 28, 2026, the United States and Israel launched Operation Epic Fury, striking 1,000 targets in Iran within the first 24 hours. By mid-March, the number had crossed 6,000. Behind this staggering pace of destruction lay not just the familiar arsenal of Tomahawk missiles, B-2 stealth bombers and carrier-based fighters, but a new weapon in the imperial toolkit: artificial intelligence. The...
This time the display of war in primetime news is not so apparent. Drones and missiles bombarded by the US with utmost precision killing civilians and military as the spectacle of global power is not being televised and celebrated as was the case during the Iraq war. In fact, the war of aggression imposed by the US and plotted by Israel on Iran seems to be evolving as a war of attrition. The US style of aggression in the name of restoring democracy or saving...

THE third Israel-US War on Iran enters its 33rd day; instead of a swift victory and regime change that the Trump administration had imagined, it has turned into a brutal battle of attrition. Iran has not only stood up to US and Israeli attacks but inflicted heavy damage on the US bases in the region, destroying its THAAD radars and bases in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, and the UAE. It has also struck the Haifa...

CLASHES before elections and camaraderie after-such infighting among ruling parties aims to divert public attention and capture the ADC, alleged CPI(M) Politburo member Jitendra Chaudhury. He was addressing a spirited rally on Monday in the Manu-Chailengta constituency in support of the Left Front candidate. Earlier, despite heavy rain, he also addressed a meeting in the Halhuli-Asharambari constituency.
LEFT and several other Opposition MPs staged a protest in the Parliament House complex on April 1 against the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Amendment Bill, 2026, and demanded that the proposed legislation be withdrawn. The Opposition also demanded a discussion on the West Asia crisis, focusing on the impact on India's LPG, crude oil, and fertiliser supply.
TRUMP is easy to dislike. He has a boorish style, an attitude toward the world that in a sweep tosses out the niceties of diplomacy and international law. One way or the other, we are going to have Greenland, he said in mid-January 2026; I do believe I will have the honour of taking Cuba, he said in March. Vulgarities like these have not been seen in public for a very long time, perhaps since before 1945, for in the period since then...
Hoisting the red flag was once virtually prohibited here. Much water has since flowed down the Gomati. Yet after eight years of BJP rule, large sections of voters have been unable to cast a ballot.
