Battle of Chosin

• Watched the above documentary "Battle of Chosin" on Netflix.
• It is just a one part episode.
• It is worth watching trust me.
• It shows the crucial Battle of Chosin where the tides of war was changed in the Korean War.
• As we know after Second World War and much before the Vietnam War there was the Korean War which supposedly started when communist North Korea invaded South Korea
• Then there was American involvement under UN flag
• And within months America had won the war and was knocking at China's border.
• And then there was Chinese involvement and Americans had to withdraw.
• It was a complete reversal of the players.
• Chinese paid a great price and also suffered during the war.
• It was a "Winter War" and veterans spoke how there was never a war like that.
• US used Napalm on Chinese forces.
• US forces were attached from all sides and since there was only one entry and exit it was a scary withdrawal.
• On one side was valley and other side mountains.
• Somehow the forces could make a withdrawal.
• They were never annihilated completely.
• And US and UN has never been subsequently to that area since the Battle.
• It makes you wonder if there can be a series like Ken Burns' Vietnam War or "The War" of the Korean War.
• Surely that would be very interesting as how things happened from 1950-1953.
• The Veterans are proud that they took part.
• It was never a defeat as South Korea still exists and continued to prosper and it is far better off than North Korea.
• While Vietnam War was a catastrophic failure in a warm tropical climate.
• Here the weather was inhospitable.
• Battle of Chosin was fought in November December 1950 when things were freezing and much below zero. So weather was crucial hindering factor.

Legend of Jagannath Puri

• Watched the above documentary "Legend of Jagannath Puri" on Hotstar
• https://www.hotstar.com/movies/legends-of-jagannath-puri/1770005019 
• I realised that Lord Jagannath was a tribal God called "Neel Madhab".
• And some king from central India heard about the God being worshiped by the tribals and sent his emissary to find out.
• The emissary was unable to convince the tribal chieftain to see the God
• Then he stayed at the village and slowly married the daughter of the chieftain.
• Then convinced the daughter to convince the chieftain to make him see the God.
• Then he saw the magnificient image and after that rushed to his King.
• Then the King came but they found the God gone.
• He was disappointed but then he got a dream about a log floating at present day Puri which would be God.
• He found the log but nobody could carve through it.
• Then supposedly Vishwakarma from heavens came in an old man form and said that he would carve the image in 21 days provided no one disturbed him.
• In 15 days the King and Queen lost patience and opened the door to find Vishwakarma vanished and he left the incomplete image of Lord which is present day Jagannath, Subhadra and Balabhadra images.
• That is the story.
• Maybe it is just a story. Maybe it is real.
• If it is real, where did the original Neel Madhav disappear is my question.
• If it is real, why could the King and Queen not control themselves for six more days and we would have a perfect image of Lord.
• But that perfect image would have been the first image only.
• If Vishwakarma himself made the Lord's image it would mean no ordinary mortal could have made the image of God again and so the ritual of "Lord getting new body" or "Nabakalebara" could not have happened ever.
• If it is false maybe the Lord is false. And everybody has been taken for ride by the emissary of the King of Central India who happened to be Aryan by the way.
• It is one more case of Aryan invasion of Native lands existing from times immemorial.
• But if the story is true it is aligned with what Zakir naik used to say in his sermons.
• Zakir Naik used to say that the God Almighty cannot be compared to anything existing in this earth.
• If we can imagine something, means it is not God.
• God is infinitely beyond what ordinary humans can imagine.
• And Lord Jagannath is "incomplete image of God" as per legend.
• Because the actual image of God is beyond comprehension of ordinary mortals.
• In the end we cannot dispute that God exists else we become Athiests.
• Then who made the Athiests in the first place.
• Surely everything has an origin however mysterious.
• I guess praying to some God is better than praying to nothing at all.
• But in case of  Lord Jagannath it is not just praying but elaborate rituals are attached as well and that makes it a living God.

Rafael Scam

• This blogpost is dedicated to Rafael Scam
• There is no doubt that NDA and BJP and RSS have engineered this big scam.
• Their aim is to use defence as a money printing venture.
• They know a full fledged war of India will never happen neither with China nor with Pakistan and nor with any other country of the world.
• So on the name of defence they loot the country.
• First they keep the sentiment of the public heightened like they are under some kind of attack and invasion.
• And then they will spend tens of thousands of crores in that name.
• Normally in Union Budget every year tens of thousands of crores is kept reserved for defence.
• But this money always returns back because you guessed it there never is a war.
• But BJP Govt is corrupt and decided to change that.
• In the name of defense they began spending those tens of thousands of crores.
• Firstly they do those exercises and nobody questions them.
• I mean who is checking whether a plane flew ten times or thousand times during those exercises.
• In the name of secrecy none of these things would be disclosed.
• That is one of the reason why Finance Minister (Arun Jaitley) was the Defence Minister.
• Or someone from Commerce Ministry (Nirmala Sitharaman) is the Defence Minister.
• It will be that much easy to manipulate the finances.
• In the case of Rafale, there is additional corruption trail which leads to Ambani and that too the younger brother who was bankrupt.
• In the name of defence, thousands of acres of land will be given to him and ready made contract of Dassault from France for the Rafale jets.
• All the while when the people are chanting Modi Modi and Ram Ram.
• This is open loot of the nation.
• HAL i.e. Hindutan Aeronautics Limited is made to bleed slowly slowly and soon it may be handed over to same Ambani after a few years.
• Same case happened with Jio and BSNL.
• What was supposed to go to BSNL i.e. 4G was handed in a golden platter to big brother of Ambani.
• That is BJP's NEW INDIA. Either you are with them or you are their slaves.
• There is no in between path in BJP-RSS made India which is in pipeline.
• Year 2019 BJP wins and it will be mega disaster in India.
• Maybe Jews and Israel want that complete anarchy in India.
• Hindus are Gentiles anyway for the Jews.
• Gentiles meaning is same as Kaffirs in Islam.
• And Hindus are going/walking into the trap.

Drink Plenty of Water

• People I want to advise you all that please drink plenty of water.
• Water will not only hydrate your body but will also hydrate your soul.
• Basically we are people means human beings and 70% or more of our body is made up of water.
• Our ancestors also drank water.
• And our ancestors have gone means died.
• Only our near and dear relatives may be alive.
• Those who were there much before we came to the earth would be gone.
• Now when they die, they do not take anything with them.
• But they have created us.
• We owe our existence to our ancestors.
• Water is a kind of magical thing which exist on planet Earth.
• It will keep people alive.
• Now one who does not have a physical body will not need water.
• When people die we do not know what happens to them.
• And in case of Hindus they are disposed off in a violent manner, means they are burned in other words cremated.
• During cremation the body undergoes torture like it has never undergone before when alive.
• It is burned. Is anything more required to be said. Rest is only left to imagination.
• But due to this fact the water content in the body is extinguished almost immediately.
• Verily our ancestors souls will now "search" for water.
• And since they do not have bodies they can only get water through us.
• Deep inside our bodies are cells and our ancestors live on those cells.
• When we drink water through a variety of processes the water percolates through to the basic entiry of our bodies and those are cells.
• Even smaller we may go to atomic level and so on.
• Aside from this view I can cite health reasons for drinking water.
• We eat lots of sugar, fat, salt, oil, carbs and so on. These keep on accumulating in our bodies and increase our weight and create like of "artificial muscles" which give extra jolts to our bones and backs.
• Thus we have back pain and suffer from lack of flexibilty.
• When we drink lots of water, these excess fat from carbs and so on dissolve and come out through piss and shit.
• And hence back pain reverses itself.
• Now how much water should you drink?
• The ideal is 3 litres plus. At least 3 litres which means at least 12 glasses of water. Anything more is welcome.
• Hence drink water for yourselves if not for your ancestors.
• Drink water for your ancestors if not for yourselves.

Nawabzade, American Sniper

Watched two movies meanwhile as mentioned above
-------------------------------------------------------------
Nawabzade

• This movie was watched on Prime Video.
• I liked the movie.
• The three lead actors in the movie are a perfect team. 
• I want more movies with three of them.
• They had come in Any Body Can Dance (ABCD) movie
• That movie was also too good.
• The second part was hijacked by Varun Dhavan.
• But Nawabzade movie is worth watching according to me.

-------------------------------------------------------------
American Sniper

• This movie was watched on Hotstar
• I liked the movie.
• The particular segment where Chris Kyle is dead and his body is being taken and along the way many people are standing with American flags is actual footage and shows the Americans dedication towards their country.
• I felt the movie is anti War movie.
• I mean it shows the Americans as invaders.
• When people and mob gather in large numbers Americans have to withdraw is shown the movie.
• Surely American can't mow through crowd.
• Americans work for God and and not Devil is shown in the movie.
• Also soldiers lose limbs and mind which is worse as they have to deal with it throughout their life which is bad is shown in the movie.
• Families are also torn apart due to repeated postings abroad for months at a stretch which is bad is shown in the movie.

The War

• Watched the seven part series "The War"(2007) on Netflix.
• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_War_(miniseries) 
• Each episode is around two hours long.
• It is worth watching.
• It shows the story of Second World War from an American perspective.
• Mainly it shows the perspective from four American towns Waterbury, Sacramento, Mobile and Luverne.
• Before each episode they show clearly that Second World War was fought in thousands of places too many for any one accounting.
• It is too good.
• Worth watching.
• I will say there is plenty of learning in the series.
• I am afraid I will not be able to reproduce all that I have learnt in this blogpost.
• All I can say I learnt plenty of things which I was not aware of before.
• I can give examples.
• How Japanese Americans were transferred to camps and then some of them were given a chance to prove the loyalty by going into the war.
• How Americans were held as prisoners by Japanese and a staggering figure of 168,000 prisoners.
• How in a few hours bombing hundred thousand were killed in Tokyo and Dresden in Germany.
• How the nuclear bomb made Japan surrender else the invasion of Japanese homeland would have cost upto 500,000 American lives and seven million Japanese.
• Compared to that 250,000 lives were lost immediately when the nuclear bombs wer dropped.
• Also USA did not have any more atom bombs but Japan did not know that and hence they surrendered. Producing new bombs could have taken months.
• Germany was systematically degraded and Nazi rule was wiped out. What they thought would last for a 1000 years could only make it to 12.
• Germany was squeezed slowly but surely from all sides.
• The Battle of Bulge was perhaps the last push Germany could manage to make but it was catastrophic for them. It was a Winter War on the border of France Germany and Belgium.
• When Sasha Weizheimer a prisoner in Santo Tomas camp in Manila began to narrate her story related to hunger we dismissed it but as the story went on and on we realised the horror of the prison camp.
• Another story of John Frazier how he was held as prisoner in four different locations in Japan after capture in Philipines and when the war ended the guards simply went away and he and other prisoner just boarded train to Tokyo and then got on ship to San Francisco.
• Japan like Germany was also similarly degraded slowly and slowly and it too capitulated.
• Island after island changed hands from Japan to US.
• Looking back we realise that Vietnam War was was an indirect result of Second World War because American military was already there mobilised in Pacific and Philipines post Second World War and they hit the land mass of Asia in full force at Vietnam and then they withdrew and focussed on Middle East but that is a different story.
• How problem between African Americans and Whites were still there in those days.
• Several decades more would be required for the integration of the communities.
• Even now there is not a perfect integration. Problems of race still exist.
• It is also clear that Second World War could not have been won without American Support and involvement.
• Also in American heartland women contributed as much as men in industry and so on.
• Without women involvement no war can ever be won.
• Also a particular German Prisoner of War also could make out when the American Soldier came from and had minute details (like the junction of two rivers one of which was like a stream) which means Hitler had made a "Committee of America" (like Ministry) and it was Hitlers plan to move on to America after Europe.
• Also nuclear bomb was actually made for Germany but Germany surrendered and there was no need to use it. And hence it got diverted to Japan which had not surrendered.
• The joy when the war ended was also too much everywhere.
• Towards the end they show that currently a thousand Second World War veterans are dying everyday. And that I guess is part of being human.

Virat Kohli comment

• This blog post is about Virat Kohli comment that one should leave India if one does not like Indian batsman is bad.
• I mean how uneducated is Virat Kohli.
• His education has plenty of gaps.
• What use is cricket if he cannot appreciate freedom of thinking.
• I must say I am deeply disappointed with Virat Kohli.
• He is a role model for youngsters and captain for present Indian cricket team.
• If a person like that says such things I have no hope left for India.
• India will degenerate more and more and slowly become a fascist state.
• I mean IPL has been going on for 11 years and counting.
• Foreign players have been playing in India for more than a decade in Indian league.
• Still Virat Kohli does not understand that.
• Virat Kohli also has been in IPL since 2008.
• Still he says like that.
• Sometimes people like Chris Gayle, sometimes like A B DeVilliers in RCB Bangalore team.
• Does that mean they should leave India.
• I mean the uneducation (if there is a word like that) of Virat Kohli impresses me.
• He has been roaming around the world for cricket and all he can say when he comes back to India is to ask people leave India if you don't like Indian players.
• It is like the BJP-RSS-Sangh Parivar remark they make "Go to Pakistan" and now Virat Kohli is toeing their line.
• It is like you scratch my back and I scratch yours.
• Virat Kohli is making remarks to legitimise the Sangh Parivar.
• Now surely he will be rewarded by them.
• And that is what is disturbing.
• We must stand up for what we think is right and not become a stooge of the RSS goons.
• I have no explanation of Virat Kohli except that he made the remark intentionally.
• If he has made the remark intentionally at the behest of BJP-RSS, no way he will ever apologise as it is the trademark of the BJP scoundrels.
• They never apologise for anything and that is the trademark of BJP.
• The person who is born in a country has no control of it.
• There may or may not be rebirth, it may be a myth for all we know.
• Also if one wants to leave a country that may not always be possible.
• One may not have money to travel or one may have family which he cannot leave or abandon.
• Sometimes Visas do not fall from tha sky.
• Visa may not be granted by country one wants to go to.
• Sometimes one cannot travel due to health reasons.
• Some people may not be aware of how to apply for a Visa in first place.
• But to Virat Kohli it does not matter.
• All that matters "Leave India if you do not like Indian batsman" and that is bad both for the country and its people.
