  • #004 - Why Israel is fighting with everyone?

    #004 - Why Israel is fighting with everyone?
    Oct 24 2024

    Since its establishment in 1948, Israel has faced numerous conflicts to safeguard its security and stability. As the birthplace of Judaism and one of the most contested regions in the world, Israel's history is marked by wars with its neighbours and clashes with groups supporting Palestine. From the 1947 UN-proposed Two-State Plan to the ongoing disputes, Israel and Palestine have been at odds for decades.


    One of Israel's most formidable enemies, Hezbollah, emerged from the chaos of the Lebanese Civil War and Israel’s invasion of Lebanon in 1982. Supported by Iran, Hezbollah has grown into a powerful militant group, receiving funds, weapons, training, and intelligence from Tehran. This alliance has kept tensions high in the region.


    Recently, Israel's Pager Attack and subsequent bombings of Hezbollah targets have intensified the situation, bringing Israel and Iran dangerously close to a full-scale conflict. Are we on the verge of another war in the Middle East? What role does Hezbollah play in this escalating tension, and how is Iran involved?

  • #003 - Is Agniveer A Mistake, Explained

    #003 - Is Agniveer A Mistake, Explained
    Oct 2 2024
    The warfare around the world is changing. From man, war is now being fought with machines. With every year, these machines are becoming more complex, advanced and powerful. But, these machines do not come cheap. Major military powers are now diverting the bulk of their defence budget to military modernisation. This puts India in quite a pickle. India’s One Rank One Pension move has increased salary and pension allocation to 50% of India’s defence budget. India’s political and military leadership understood this and decided to restore the balance with Agniveer, a short service scheme to induct soldiers to three branches of the military. But, the recent Loksabha elections of 2024 put a huge question mark on Agniveer. What is Agniveer? Why does India need Agniveer? Is it a mistake? What’s the way forward?

    #002 - EVs Are A Scam, Explained.
    Sep 30 2024
    Electric Vehicles or EVs are marketed as our biggest weapon against climate change and a great option to save the planet. These marketing campaigns have been successful as the EV adoption rates are increasing around the world. However, EVs are not helpful in the fight against climate change. The increasing adoption of EVs is creating more problems than it solves. EVs are creating new types of pollution that threaten the earth, atmosphere, water and human lives. Broadly, EVs need to answer three big questions about the source of power, the raw materials and the China connection. Watch this video to understand Why EVs are not our best bet against climate change and pollution. 📲 Follow us on Social media: Twitter/X: https://dub.sh/bIRdARb Instagram: https://dub.sh/AZwnZIp WhatsApp channel: https://link.indexdaily.in/wa Podcast: https://link.indexdaily.in/podcast All materials in these videos and audio are used for educational purposes and fall within the fair use guidelines.
