एक सेवानिवृत्त पाकिस्तानी राजनयिक ने टेलीविज़न पर मुंबई और दिल्ली को परमाणु निशाना बनाने की धमकी दी। घंटों के भीतर यह क्लिप करोड़ों भारतीयों के फ़ोन तक पहुँच गई। यह सिर्फ़ एक आदमी के बयान की कहानी नहीं है। यह उस जंग की कहानी है जो कभी रुकी ही नहीं, और उस नई मशीनरी की, जो अब इसे बिना किसी लागत के लड़ती है। पाकिस्तान के एक न्यूज़ चैनल पर वह एक सामान्य शाम थी। स्टूडियो वैसा ही था जैसा हमेशा होता है: पैनल डेस्क, गंभीरता का आभास देने वाली नाटकीय रोशनी, होस्ट आगे की ओर झुका हुआ, जैसे कुछ…

Chuck Norris died on 19 March 2026. He was 86, still training, still punching. The world lost the myth first, and only then realised how much of the man it had never actually seen. Nine days before he died, Chuck Norris posted a video to Instagram.

रमज़ान की इबादत, चाँद रात की रौनक और ईद की उस पहली सुबह का अनकहा एहसास कुछ त्योहार सिर्फ कैलेंडर पर नहीं, दिलों की गहराई में बसते हैं। वे आते हैं तो सिर्फ तारीख नहीं बदलती मौसम बदलता है, रिश्ते महकते हैं, और ज़िंदगी एक पल के लिए रुककर मुस्कुराती है। ईद ऐसा ही एक त्योहार है। रात के आसमान में जब वह पतला-सा चाँद झाँकता है, तो लाखों दिलों में एक अजीब-सी हलचल मच जाती है। बच्चे छतों पर दौड़ते हैं, बुज़ुर्गों की आँखें नम हो जाती हैं, और माँएं रसोई में सेवइयों का इंतज़ाम करने लगती हैं। यह…

America has not stumbled into its wars. It has built, funded, lobbied, and legislated its way into every single one. Fadhel Al Nashmi was a secondary school mathematics teacher in Basra.
