Justice in Conflict

The clash between the International Criminal Court (ICC) and Israel over arrest warrants for key Israeli leaders, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defence Minister Yoav Gallant, brings to the forefront a longstanding debate about accountability, self-defence, and international justice.

Is there life after death? After millennia of Vedic-Puranic teachings and learnings, the answer is definitely a resounding 'Yes'. Nothing dies, it changes form; nothing is born, it assumes new forms.

If the spirit of cooperation that was seen during the negotiations for reunification of Germany had prevailed, successive US administrations would not have been so keen on Nato's enlargement immediately after the disintegration of USSR.
