House and Palestine
After two years, finally, through a still-blurred horizon, I can glimpse my country again. Italy had always been the most pro-Palestinian of European countries. Much depended on the fact that the old Italian Communist Party — which, at the time, was the largest in Western Europe — placed solidarity with oppressed peoples at the center of its vision. Palestine had become something of a flag of international solidarity.

Dr. B. R. Ambedkar: Beyond Politics -The Civilizational Architect Who Rewrote the Destiny of Humanity
In the vast chronicle of human history, few individuals have transcended the boundaries of time, ideology, and politics. Among them stands Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar, a name that cannot be confined to the narrow frame of a “politician.” To call Ambedkar merely a political figure is to diminish the cosmic scale of his thought and the transformative depth of his mission. He was not a seeker of power_ he was a creator of conscience, a builder of civilization, and a philosopher of equality whose words still echo as moral thunder across the world.

Over Mountains and Chains: Sultan Mehmed II’s Impossible Conquest
In the dead of night, under a sky pierced by flickering torches, 70 colossal warships—each a behemoth of timber and iron—groaned like wounded giants. Not on waves, but on rollers of greased logs, dragged by 10,000 sweating men over a mile of rugged hills. This was no myth. This was 1453. This was the moment a 21-year-old sultan turned the impossible into legend, sailing an armada across dry land to shatter an empire's heart.
