— US BASES ATTACKED… US bases in Syria and Iraq repeatedly attacked over the last 24 hours, 20-30 soldiers injured (CNN), some evacuated to medical care in Germany. Most recent attack: 12:45 PM A rocket attack on the US airbase Al Shadadi located in northern Syria.

— DELAY ANALYSIS… (Arab Desk - 100% speculation with experience) Why does the US not respond? What is this waiting for defense systems? Answer: The US currently has forces that can deliver such a severe blow to both Syria and Iraq at the same time that they don't have to wait for anything. But it is better to wait for more equipment and more defensive and offensive systems to arrive, another two days or another week, the reaction can wait. The explanation is simple, once it starts it will be impossible to stop - better to have resources in place. Israel and the US are coordinated, neither side will surprise the other because either’s actions can trigger the greater region.

Journalist B N Uniyal was the first to train the spotlight on caste in Indian media, through his piece 'In Search of a Dalit Journalist', which was published in The Pioneer on November 16, 1996. A foreign reporter had asked Uniyal for an introduction to a Dalit journalist. Uniyal realised he did not know one. He analysed 454 caste surnames of 686 journalists accredited by the Press Information Bureau. There was not a single Dalit among them. He called up 47 of the remaining 232 accredited journalists—and still drew a blank. To celebrate the dawn of the new millennium, The Pioneer invited Uniyal to write for its eight-page Dalit supplement. He sent them the 1996 piece with the following addition: “The article…was totally ignored by our journalistic establishment… None felt aghast or alarmed at the situation described in the article.”
