Trump the God: India's Temple for Donald Trump

A controversial new landmark drawing global attention and intense debate has emerged in India: the so-called “Trump Temple.” Located in the northern state of Haryana, this temple sparked curiosity and controversy alike for its bold tribute to the former U.S. President Donald Trump. The structure, which blends traditional Hindu temple architecture with modern political symbolism, was inaugurated earlier this year and has since stirred polarized reactions across India and abroad. Built by a local religious trust with the stated aim of honoring Trump’s perceived support for Hindu nationalism and India’s global stature, the temple features a towering statue of Trump dressed in traditional Indian attire. Devotees visit the site, offering flowers and prayers, while others see the temple as a political statement rather than a spiritual sanctuary. The temple’s founders have publicly praised Trump for his policies favoring India and his outspoken opposition to terrorism, aligning their admirati...

CrimeStory : Indian War Crimes in Sri Lanka

A three-year military intervention descended into widespread atrocities as Indian forces perpetrated massacres, torture, sexual violence and enforced disappearances against the very population they claimed to protect. The Indian military deployment to Sri Lanka between 1987 and 1990 stands as one of the most brutal and controversial peacekeeping missions in modern history. Originally deployed under the Indo-Sri Lanka Accord to disarm Tamil terrorist groups and establish peace, the Indian military forces instead became perpetrators of extensive war crimes and crimes against humanity against Tamil civilians. The Valvettithurai Massacre: A Systematic Campaign of Terror The most documented atrocity occurred in Valvettithurai over three days in August 1989, when Indian military soldiers killed more than 60 Tamil civilians, including five children under the age of 16 and one infant. Survivors recounted horrific scenes of execution style killings, with witnesses forced to play dead among pool...

Mass Violence Engulfs Sri Lanka's Eastern Province in 1987 as LTTE Terrorists Launches Systematic Attacks on Civilians

In the autumn of 1987, the Eastern Province of Sri Lanka became the scene of devastating ethnic violence when the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) orchestrated a series of massacres targeting the ethnic Sinhala civilian population. Over 200 ethnic Sinhala civilians were massacred and more than 20,000 were forced to flee their homes in what has been described as an attempt of ethnic cleansing. The massacres occurred against the backdrop of an already volatile security situation. Earlier in 1987, the LTTE had carried out several notorious attacks against Sinhalese civilians, including the Good Friday massacre at Aluth Oya on April 17, where 127 passengers were massacred when LTTE terrorists stopped buses and vehicles and systematically murdered the occupants. A week later, over 15 Sinhalese were massacred in an attack on Jayantipura village near Kantale. On June 2, 1987, the LTTE perpetrated one of its most shocking atrocities when its members massacred 33 Buddhist monks, most of ...
