The Prosperity, stability and power of the United States and indeed the West survives on it being an empire. That empire is now devouring itself. After destroying many. Trump's ways may dismantle this colonial behemoth. Will United States survive as a country, when it is no longer an empire?
When rage is combined with religious and ideological absolutism, avenues of freedoms vanish. Dissent is met with ruthless subjugation and every atrocity is covered up by ambivalence. Let's deep dive.
My India journey started with Mahakumbh, followed by a conference on geopolitics. The world is changing, and we need to focus on the motivations behind these changes.
Are you scared of how you will lose everything and will have to start again? Starting from scratch is the nightmare of many in the world. But there are some who have done it time and time again by reinventing themselves.
I have many weaknesses personally, but one of the things that I am content about is how so many time and in so many ways I have restarted my life and ways from scratch. And with the abyss and the fear that one is faced with, the walking out of all that takes strength. A lot of mental strength! Many times the whole world is against you or has discounted you. In fact rooting and confident in your failure. It is when the everyone is assured of your complete annihilation that you choose to walk back successfully that makes you a different person.

Deshun Wang was born in 1936 in Shenyang, a northeastern city in China. At the young age of 24 he became a stage actor and began acting at the Changchun Theater. There he practiced mime as well. In that journey he struggled with securing traditional acting jobs. And he decided to create his own form of silent performance art called ‘Living Sculpture.’ He performed with his troupe abroad in Germany, France, South Korea etc. It all involved showing his body, often painted, as he posed for hours at a time.
When he was 50, Wang hit the gym and worked for 4 hours at an end and had the look what that wanted.
In 2015, “suddenly” he became a global sensation when he walked the catwalk at the China Fashion Week. On the runwat, he came with an unusual stype – with high energy which is SO different from the “norma” slow, sultry catwalk style!
Deshun has also acted in the movie – The Forbidden Kingdom, in which he plays the Jade Emperor, and also in Miss Granny, where he plays Li Dahai.
Here are some of his pictures.
New configuration and dynamics is brewing up in North and South Korea that may have larger ramifications.
Rare Earth Elements (REE) will change and rule the world as oil did in the last century. China dominates that industry like no other. And it uses that monopoly to beat down on its adversaries.
The Great Depression of the 1930s led to World War 2 in a significant manner. Current economic crises and geopolitical battles are converging. What will the coming wars be like? We look at the scenario deeply.
Attack by Hamas took a lot to accomplish. The sudden Chinese bonhomie with Syria and the bringing together of Arab - Sunni and Shia countries and actors by Xi Jinping's regime raises some questions .
