Your last piece on Pager attacks was extremely poignant and thought provoking.

Even though Hezbollah organized and communicated through their secret pager network to all active militia, it is unethical, immoral for Israel to indiscriminately target their active members by somehow accessing their private network. It is frankly immaterial what Hezbollah's militant activities has been in the past and this event should be viewed in a vacuum. Extend the focus beyond a certain timeline, and the waters get muddy. So it must be analyzed in this restricted, sterile environment like any scientist, worth their salt, would.

I am curious about the link between this attack with Matsyanyaaya , Atmanirbharta, and an increase in protectionism. I want to peep behind this curtain of genius, which after reading your article taunts to me 'How did I not think of these linked events myself?'.

I look forward to reading more about this in your next newsletter.
