My Rendezvous with Publishers

 

The other day, I started contacting known publishing houses to publish One out of Six of my Poetry book in Print Length Edition. I already knew that hybrid or self-publishing via publisher is not that difficult, as you just need to invest partly or fully, and the number of copies you desired would be published, & then either alone, or with the help of distributor, you can take your book into the shelves of book stores. But the real deal is with the traditional publishing, in which you’re not spending a penny, and the publisher takes the entire initiative. So, I started calling/writing emails in the last couple of months for traditional publishing. It was honestly fun discovering the truth about poetries. And technically, the logic given by several publishers was indeed correct & acceptable w.r.t. poetries.

The Incorrect Usage of Words in Israel-Palestine Conflict!

The usage of the words: colonialism or apartheid or occupiers for Israel in the mainstream is technically Incorrect! And it’s not about me being partial, but, pointing out the wrongful usage of words in the layman’s language.

Now, colonialism means establishing forceful settlement over indigenous people, whereas, apartheid means segregation in terms of race. But in the Israel-Palestine conflict, technically, Israelis themselves too are original indigenous people according to the ancient history books; who once left their homeland during invasions by Romans, Greeks, and especially during Arab era; got dispersed globally, until post WW-1 & 2, wherein eventually started returning back to their homeland i.e. present day Israel, which their ancestors fled once, during earlier invasions.

The Allies Failed Israel; Not Its Intelligence!

 

Indeed, this act of terrorism is more than a pearl harbor or 9/11 moment for Israel, as when you adjust the population ratio of it comparing to major democratic nations, the toll would go into thousands. And I was flabbergasted when one UN lady on the mainstream spoke, that, terrorists should avoid civilians; as if they’re allowed to launch rockets or can infiltrate the streets firing guns & bombs. Such statements reminded of one eminent political scientist & a politician himself viz. Dr. Justin Tweedledum of Canada who’s PhD in Political Disasters from Ottawa University, in an alternate universe.....

What Can’t be Ameliorated; Be Rejected!

 

What makes the apes and humans, differ?

Not even the tools in hands, but how used!

If change was constant, then why never did?

Crawled in future with single scent diffused.

Decision Making vs. Modern Liberalism. A Case.

In 2001, WSJ published an article titled, “The answer to terrorism? Colonialism.” But in the 80s to early 90s, the Western mainstream considered Mujahideen as heroes in the war against Soviets, on sovereign soils; until, one day, the terror knocked on their own doors, eventually upending their beliefs, so much so that by mid-90s, the West had to forge an alliance, against such overseas heroes of theirs’. And remember? The early 00 speech, originating from the West -> ‘Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists.’ Today, exactly who is standing alongside terrorism?......

The Game

 

Seems Mr. Justin Trudeau didn’t comprehend the game. He thought, just alike Britishers gave away 1/3 of India to Pakistan, he would help Khalistanis’ in acquiring tiny part of India, to form Khalistan (which is under the influence of PAK). Further it looks like, for him, all this Khalistani separation movement is a new adventure under modern liberalism. While writing this blog, I'm recalling Justin Timberlake's early 00's song: "give me that chance, to be your man."....

What defines diaspora today?

 

Suppose, Subject A is a Japanese by citizenship, or may be by birth, but not by evolution. Eventually, Subject A relocates to, let’s say to Canada, Qatar or maybe US, Singapore, Australia. Now assume, Subject A always despised original Japan, with some grudges.

After emigrating/immigrating, Subject A starts galvanizing people in Canada, US, Singapore, Australia etc. against Japan; further approach mainstream, extremist organizations around world, in the name of diversity & free will; to drop another metaphorical nuclear weapon on Japan, this time on Tokyo.

Afraid of Another?

 

The Apple Box theory, a theory of reincarnation, as well?

As time’s cyclic, maybe; the life too, in which addressed!

As nearing to theorizing that the universe existed always!

That build, decays, burns, and evolves; into same stage.

The Dilemma of Canada

 

The free speech isn’t absolute. Fact! That’s why USA in 2018 deported 95 years ex-Nazi guard to Germany (despite being quietly living for decades). And regarding Canada’s contention, that sovereign soils alike it, can allow terror groups to thrive in their own vicinity in the name of free speech; then let me prove why this contention is not worth discerning in the herein below paras:
