Ana Sayfaya Dön

Even today, at Gurdwara Datansar Sahib at Muktsar, devotees strike a grave five times with their shoes - a powerful reminder that betrayal is never forgiven, and never forgotten. And yet, I am compelled to ask: what kind of Sikhs forget this lesson so easily? Those who allow Namaz...

🙏🇺🇸🙏 U.S. Air Force Captain Seth R. Koval — one of six Airmen who lost their lives while supporting Operation Epic Fury. For those who knew Seth, he was far more than a pilot or an officer in uniform. He was a husband, a father, a son, a brother, and a friend whose presence filled the lives of the people around him with love and strength. Seth grew up dreaming of becoming a pilot. That dream eventually became a life of service, one he carried with pride every time he put on his uniform. Those close to him say he loved what he did and felt honored to serve others through his work in the Air Force. But the people who knew him best remember something even greater than his career. They remember a man who was loving, generous, and kind-hearted. A man who always looked for ways to help others. Someone who could fix almost anything, who loved the outdoors, and who never hesitated to put the needs of others before his own. Above all, Seth was a devoted family man. His wife shared the heartbreak their family is now facing, describing the unimaginable pain of losing the person she loved most. In her words, Seth was not only an exceptional Airman, but the most incredible husband, father, son, brother, and friend anyone could ask for. She shared that one of the greatest honors of her life was standing beside him as he achieved the dream he had carried since childhood — becoming a pilot and serving his country. Though his life was cut far too short, Seth's legacy continues to live on through the family he loved deeply, especially in the smile of his young son who will carry a part of his father's spirit forward. For the Koval family, the days ahead will not be easy. Yet they have expressed deep gratitude for the love and support that has surrounded them during this painful time. Across communities and within the Air Force family, many people are remembering Captain Seth R. Koval not only for the uniform he wore, but for the life he lived - a life marked by service, faith, and love for others. Today we pause to honor him and to keep his family, friends, and fellow Airmen in our thoughts. - May Capt. Seth R. Koval rest in peace, and may his service and legacy never be forgotten 🙏🇺🇸🙏

I grew up hearing and researching stories of war and peace-from both sides of the Pacific. On the morning of September 2, 1945, at 9 am, a ceremony was held aboard the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay, where Japan signed the instrument of surrender. The Chinese representative, signing immediately after General MacArthur and Admiral Nimitz, was the third to place his name on the document, marking the formal end of WWII. When the news reached China, the entire nation erupted in celebration. From then on, September 3 became China's V Day-a day that symbolizes the shared honor and triumph of the 57 nations of the Allied coalition. Today, China held a grand commemoration to mark this moment worth remembering. During my studies in the United States, I was often struck by how little people around me knew about China's understanding of WWII. In China, America's wartime support is still remembered-above all the Flying Tigers, who are household names, honored as heroes, and cherished as a symbol of Sino-American friendship. At the same time, I was also surprised that even the most rigorous American history scholars remain largely unaware of China's sacrifices and contributions. One American history professor I deeply respect, who never shied away from criticizing America's own diplomatic flaws, and who has been one of the most important teachers in shaping my understanding of the US, once asked me in puzzlement: "Why does China believe it won WWII? Didn't the United States win the war?" The Allied victory came at a staggering cost to China. It was this cost that earned the deep respect of FDR, as seen in my recent tweets drawing on FDR archives. And it was precisely because of these sacrifices that China was accorded the honor of being the third to sign the surrender instrument on September 2, 1945. My great-grandfather was among the witnesses of that history. As a major general, he led his troops through immense sacrifices to win several hard-fought battles. I once read the memoirs of a veteran who recalled how, during Sunday assemblies of his division, he would often speak about Sino-American relations "in an inspiring way". Over the past decade, I have spent time in the Roosevelt Library in New York, exploring extensive American wartime archives, and I have also met many American veterans and descendants of US generals. As a historian, together with these American friends, I often worry that this once-precious friendship is being forgotten far too quickly in the US. It could remind us that, in the darkest of times, our two nations placed trust in one another and fought side by side. It could serve as a historical foundation for rebuilding mutual understanding and trust between our peoples. It could also provide, amid today's shifting and complicated realities, a shared point of connection across generations. I was originally invited to attend today's events and had my pass prepared, but due to some miscommunication I regrettably missed the chance to be at Tiananmen Square. Nevertheless, I had the privilege of witnessing the grand celebrations of the 70th anniversary of the PRC in 2019, and today, from the balcony of my home, I was still able to catch a glimpse of the festivities at Tiananmen, capturing a few photos and videos as a personal memory. Top left: At the opening, 80 ceremonial cannon shots were fired, symbolizing the 80 years since 1945. Top right: Just before the People's Liberation Army parade on Tiananmen Square, helicopters flew overhead carrying banners that read "Justice will prevail, Peace will prevail, The People will prevail." In the distance, you can see the Forbidden City. Bottom left: Fighter jets passing in formation to receive review. Bottom right: Close the end of the parade, 80,000 doves of peace and 80,000 balloons were released. All balloons are biodegradable. As a descendant of a WWII veteran, as a historian who has studied the WWII extensively, and as a friend to many American WWII veterans and their families, I feel deeply connected to this commemoration. This moment does not belong to China alone-it belongs to all who have fought, hoped and sacrificed for peace. May history never be forgotten, and may peace never be forsaken.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐨𝐟 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐇𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐲: 𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐖𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐍𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐞 Prince Harry, once the shining light of the royal family, has now become a figure of contempt in Britain, a man who has not only turned his back on his family but, more egregiously, sold out his country. His actions over the past few years have burned every last bridge, leaving the British public with nothing but scorn for the man who once stood shoulder to shoulder with the people. The Oprah interview was the tipping point. It was here that Harry, complicit in silence, allowed Meghan Markle to imply that a member of the royal family had concerns about the skin colour of their son, Archie. The accusation was seismic, sending shockwaves through the UK. But what made this worse—what made it utterly unforgivable—was Harry’s inaction. His failure to stand up for his family while his ailing grandfather, Prince Philip, was in his final days showed a callous disregard for the pain it would cause. No matter the issues he may have had behind closed doors, to go on international television and sully the name of the institution that raised him was seen by many as nothing short of treachery. And as if the Oprah debacle wasn’t bad enough, we were later subjected to 𝘏𝘢𝘳𝘳𝘺 & 𝘔𝘦𝘨𝘩𝘢𝘯, the Netflix mockumentary thinly veiled as a love letter to themselves but in truth, a very public airing of grievances. It was here that Meghan’s mocking of the royal tradition of curtsying to Queen Elizabeth shocked us Brits. With a poorly executed theatrical bow and a laughable comparison to medieval times, she belittled a gesture that symbolises respect and duty—values the British monarchy stands for. And Harry? He smirked. His silence, again, was deafening. How could any grandson, raised in the folds of such tradition, allow his wife to mock the woman who represented so much to so many? The British people watched, aghast. That smirk—that quiet complicity—was a betrayal not just of his family, but of us, the British public who had once held him in such high regard. Queen Elizabeth, beloved and respected, was the embodiment of duty and grace, and for Harry to stand idly by as she was mocked before her passing will never be forgiven. The wound is deep, and it’s raw. Then came the memoir 𝘚𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘦. If the Netflix series was a veiled attack, 𝘚𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘦 was an all-out assault. Page after page of grievances, personal attacks on his father and brother, intimate family moments laid bare for the world to see. The British public has always respected the monarchy’s ability to keep private matters within the palace walls. Harry tore that tradition apart. And for what? A quick buck, a bit of global attention. The title of ‘spare’ may have haunted him his whole life, but now it’s clear: the role he once resented is one he’s embraced—no longer a prince, but a spare to the very values that once defined him. For us Brits, it isn’t just the content of his attacks that hurts—it’s the fact that he’s chosen to air them so publicly, so vindictively. The monarchy is not just his family; it is the backbone of British history, culture, and identity. To see it so easily discarded and vilified by one of its own is a wound that may never heal. No, Britain will not forgive Harry. The man who was once the cheeky prince with a ready smile and a heart for service has become a symbol of betrayal. He has betrayed his family, his country, and his role in history. And for that, there is no going back.
