The book hasn’t even been published. I haven’t seen a copy myself so how could anyone else have it? - Former Army Chief General Manoj Mukund Naravane And yet, Rahul Gandhi walked into Parliament citing that very unpublished book. Did he hack it or steal it? He must clarify!

Rahul Gandhi not only lowered the dignity of Parliament, but also dragged a decorated Army officer into his cheap politics. Despite the book not being published, he chose to raise a sensitive national security issue inside the Parliament. When confronted, he falsely claimed that the book had already been published and misrepresented facts.❗ Now, former Chief of Army Staff General Manoj Mukund Naravane and Penguin Publishers have clarified that the book has not been published. This is not an isolated incident. Time and again, he has misled the nation by presenting distorted facts. With such conduct, the nation is left wondering whether he truly deserves to hold the position of Leader of the Opposition. ⚠️

“We showed the world that it is possible to take on the bully China,” said the then Army Chief, General M. M. Naravane. India’s Armed Forces stood their ground in Galwan, acted with resolve, and delivered a clear message to the world: strength, leadership, and the nation will not be intimidated. Yet Rahul Gandhi repeatedly chooses to doubt the word of a former Army Chief, who also stated that India did not lose an inch of land. Instead of standing with India’s Armed Forces, he has consistently undermined the country’s official position and leaned on foreign agencies and narratives to score political points and make his foreign allies happy. Also, all the claims he has been trying to peddle in the Parliament, are based on an unpublished book!

My questions for Rahul Gandhi! India will never allow you or your party to use our Army as a political PAWN . 1. Parliament runs on a Rule Book, not propaganda. Quoting any book or memoir requires an original source. Yet you insist on weaponising an unpublished, unauthorised manuscript of Gen Manoj Naravane after it was ruled inadmissible. Why? Because facts on record demolish your narrative. 2. The same former Army Chief has publicly stated that not an inch of Indian land was lost—a fact you conveniently ignore while cherry-picking leaked lines to cast doubts on the Government and indirectly on the Army. 3.And if The Caravan is your gospel truth, then have the honesty to own its virulent attacks on your own party. Its Executive Editor Hartosh Singh Bal has repeatedly described Congress under the Gandhis as hollow, directionless, elitist—and has held Indira Gandhi responsible for disastrous misadventures like Punjab. Will you take responsibility for that history too? Or is belief in journalism strictly selective—only when it suits attacking the Govt and the Armed Forces? Parliament is not your op-ed page. India’s Army is not your political prop. This isn’t dissent—it’s deliberate narrative warfare, and the country sees through it. Rahul Gandhi Congress

Here is a tweet from Mr Naravane which says, “Just follow the link to my book.” The point I am making is this: either Mr Naravane is lying, or Penguin is lying. I do not think the former Army Chief would lie. Penguin says the book has not been published, but the book is available on Amazon. Gen. Naravane has tweeted, “Please buy my book in 2023.” I believe Naravane ji over Penguin. Do you believe Penguin over Naravane ji? I believe Naravane ji has made certain statements in his book that are inconvenient for the Government of India and the Prime Minister of India. Obviously, you have to decide whether Penguin or the former Army Chief is telling the truth.

🚨 Detect the Deepfake ❌ Pak-based propaganda accounts are circulating a digitally manipulated video of former COAS General Upendra Dwivedi, falsely claiming that he said: “We are being made scapegoat for something that we never participated in… exonerating the political decision making, which we followed. For this I am resigning in protest and handing over the command to General Dhiraj Seth”. The video also pushes fabricated claims about hiding casualties in Operation Sindoor due to political pressure. ✅ Fact: The video has been digitally manipulated to insert a fake narrative. In the original video, former Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi made no such statement. The change of the Chief of the Army Staff was carried out in accordance with the established tenure norms and laid-down procedures upon his superannuation after more than four decades of service. It was a routine transition and not the result of any resignation or political pressure. 🔗 Original Context: 🎯 Disinformation Pattern: Digitally manipulated video → fabricated quote → self-invented claim → social media amplification → anti-India narrative.

#WATCH | Lok Sabha LoP Rahul Gandhi says, "I don't think PM will have the guts to come to the Lok Sabha today because if he comes, I am going to give him this book. If the PM comes, I will go physically and hand him this book so he can read it and the country can get to know the truth." "...Every youngster in India should see that this book exists. This is Mr Naravane's book. He has given an entire account of Ladakh in this book; I have been told that I cannot quote this book. The main line is what the PM said - "jo uchit samjho wo karo". When the (former) Chief of Army Staff General Naravane called up Rajnath Singh ji and said that Chinese tanks have reached the Kailash Ridge, so what should we do? First, Rajnath Singh did not respond to him. He asked Jaishankar ji, NSA and Rajnath Singh but received no reply. He then called up Rajnath Singh once again. Rajnath Singh told him that he would ask the 'top'. The standing order of the 'top' was that if Chinese forces come in, we should not fire on them without permission. Naravane ji and our Army wanted to fire on those tanks because they had entered our territory. Narendra Modi ji gave a message that "jo uchit samjho wo karo". It means that Narendra Modi did not fulfil his duties; he told the Army chief to do whatever he wants as "mere bas ki nahi hai." Naravane ji writes, 'I felt really alone, I was abandoned by the entire establishment."

“PFIPC DG Adeyemi Has Been Arrested. There Are a Lot Of Things I Discussed With Him Before His Arrest. And The Truth Is That The Chief Of Staff To The President, Femi Gbajabiamila, Is a Victim In This Whole Incident. Apparently, Femi Gbajabiamila Wrote a Petition Against The PFIPC After The United States Embassy Wrote To The Presidency That The Agency Had Requested U.S. Visas For Some Of Its Workers. That Was Where Everything Fell Apart. Now, What Every Nigerian Should Be Asking Is This: If Femi Gbajabiamila Is Innocent, Then Who Inserted This Fake Agency Into The National Budget? This Is Where The Budget Office Comes In. The Director-General And Other Key Officials Must Come Forward And Explain. Another Important Question Is: How Many Other Agencies Have Been Inserted Into The National Budget? This Matter Goes Beyond Femi Gbajabiamila, The PFIPC DG, Or Politics. It Is About Nigeria As a Country And The Different Schemes That Have Been Used To Milk Our Beloved Nation.”

History shows, not through one, but through numerous facts, that Jair Bolsonaro was never, at any moment, inclined to carry out a coup d’état. The narrative used to imprison an innocent former president asks us to believe that, after 4 years, when he was no longer president, he suddenly decided to stage a coup. And that, before leaving office, he even appointed the military commanders chosen by his opponent, Lula da Silva, the supposed victim of this alleged coup. As if that were not enough, this narrative claims that Jair M. Bolsonaro deployed an “army” of elderly ladies, women, and children on a day when not a single shot was fired nor a single weapon seized, on that infamous January 8th, 2023, to supposedly return to power in Brazil. A detail worth noting: on that date, Bolsonaro was in the United States, in the city of Orlando, home of Disney. That is why this has been called the “Disney coup.” Below is a brief account by Jair Bolsonaro’s son, Senator Flávio Bolsonaro Flavio Bolsonaro , summarizing this matter👇

When the public found out that martial law troops had actually been sent to the National Election Commission, President Yoon’s approval rating shot up to nearly 60%. But the second his numbers started climbing, those polling agencies and media outlets suddenly stopped releasing any further results to the public. Former Prime Minister Hwang Kyo-ahn has been digging into election fraud issues for years. Before entering politics, he was a national security prosecutor who spent decades dismantling communist and pro-North Korean networks. He even went so far as to found his own party—yet the mainstream media has done everything it can to erase him and ignore his voice. The PPP has consistently dodged any real confrontation with the election fraud question. Meanwhile, Hwang hasn’t backed down. He says, “More than half of the country is already aware of the election fraud. Don’t try to hide it. It will all come to light.”

Advocate Zubair Killed by Pakistan Army — Irrefutable Evidence of State Terrorism > 🎥 Watch in Video: A destroyed home by the Pakistan Army & Chairman Zubair Baloch’s speech against enforced disappearances in #Balochistan. Advocate Zubair Baloch was a peaceful political activist and a staunch defender of human rights. In Dalbandin, Chagai district, Balochistan, the Pakistan Army raided a house and killed him along with his companion, Nasir Baloch. Shamelessly, the Pakistan Army has admitted responsibility for this attack and the killings. This was an act of pure state terrorism. Advocate Zubair was a powerful voice in Balochistan — speaking against enforced disappearances, the plunder of resources, and ongoing human rights violations. For this very reason, he was deliberately targeted and assassinated. The Pakistani military continues to brand the Baloch national struggle — a genuine, deeply rooted indigenous movement against occupation — as “foreign interference,” even using terms like “Fitna-al-Hindustan” to mislead the world. Such propaganda reflects the state’s immaturity, its hatred, and its desperation to delegitimize a just, homegrown movement. These attacks make no distinction — women, children, and peaceful activists are not spared. The killing of Chairman Zubair is further undeniable proof that Pakistan seeks to silence every voice raised for Baloch rights. Chairman Zubair Baloch, former Chairman of BSO (Pajjar) — the student wing of a parliamentary party — was a law graduate committed to peaceful politics. His assassination exposes the state’s systematic attempt to crush peaceful dissent and wipe out an entire nation. This is part of the ongoing #Baloch #genocide. Today, Pakistan stands at the United Nations (United Nations ) pretending to champion human rights — yet the truth is clear: its army tramples every law, storms homes, and kills unarmed civilians, women, and even infants. The ongoing UN session ( #UNGA80 ) must address this openly — and Pakistan must be held accountable for its crimes. #StopBalochGenocide #StateKilledZubairBaloch

Zimbabwe has never been led by politics; it has always been led by the gun from the rear. In fact, the Zimbabwe African National Union (ZANU) has always been led by the gun — only the Zimbabwe African People’s Union (ZAPU) was led by politics. The first leader of ZANU was Ndabaningi Sithole. He was removed by the Mgagao Declaration, which was signed by the military wing of ZANU, the Zimbabwe African National Liberation Army (ZANLA). The chairman of ZANU and its external leader was Herbert Chitepo. He was also killed by ZANLA in Zambia according to an international commission of inquiry set up by Zambian president, Dr Kenneth Kaunda. The next leader of ZANU was Robert Mugabe. He was installed by the military, although Samora Machel the president of Mozambique had advised them against the idea. Machel was proved right in the fullness of time, but it was the military that endorsed Mugabe through Rex Nhongo who became known as Solomon Mujuru. The Lancaster House talks in Britain were almost stalled by Mugabe’s intransigence, but it was General Josiah Tongogara, with the help of Samora Machel, who forced Mugabe to sign — after Machel sent his special aide, Fernando Honwana, to tell Mugabe to sign or come back to Maputo and write his memoirs on the beach. Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, it was the military, through its commanders, that influenced politics. In fact, any time Mugabe felt threatened, it was the military that sorted out party problems. General Solomon Mujuru was nicknamed the Kingmaker because of that, he was a powerful behind-the-scenes Politburo influencer when he was the overall commander of the army. Post-2000, it was the military that kept ZANUPF in power and actually ran its elections in tandem with the CIO. It was General Vitalis Zvinavashe who threatened citizens saying the military won’t accept a Morgan Tsvangirai victory. Though not a visible Politburo member in the 1980s, he was deeply embedded in both party and military affairs. General Constantino Chiwenga was effectively a military commissar for ZANUPF, executing the first bloodless coup in 2008 when the military stopped Morgan Tsvangirai from taking over after defeating Robert Mugabe. He was heavily involved in the 2013 elections with Air Marshal Muchena and eventually carried out a military coup that put Mnangagwa and the current regime in power. When the new crop of so called technocrats was appointed by Mugabe in 2000, it was General Chiwenga who was involved and when they hit a brick wall, they would return to him. The first time the military refused to be involved in politics — which is the real first aberration — was two weeks ago, when General Anselem Nhamo Sanyatwe refused to deploy soldiers against civilians and was fired for that. The ZANUPF spokesman Christopher Mutsvangwa called it disloyalty. If President Emmerson Mnangagwa manages to fire General Chiwenga tomorrow, as rumours suggest, without any blowback or deadly consequences, he would become the first ZANUPF leader to lead the gun — and not be removed by the military. So I disagree with the notion by my brother, Prof Jonathan Moyo, that the 2017 coup was an aberration. It wasn’t — it was the norm. What was an aberration was the amount of violence against the CIO and police officers who tried to resist. What has kept Emmerson Mnangagwa in power after his power struggle with his Vice President is his clansman, General Philip Valerio Sibanda who is the Commander of the Zimbabwe Defence Forces. He is opposed to General Chiwenga taking over as president and has been a stumbling block for the Vice President. Mnangagwa has been strategic by removing the former ZANLA army commanders from the top of the military because they are loyal to Chiwenga, who was in ZANLA, and replacing them with ex-Zimbabwe People’s Revolutionary Army (ZIPRA) commanders. General Sibanda and the Commander of the Army, General Emmanuel Matatu, are both ex-ZIPRA, and they are all from the Midlands, like Mnangagwa.

PRESIDENT TINUBU INAUGURATES NEW ARMY BARRACKS, COMMITS TO TROOPS' WELFARE President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Federal Republic of Nigeria, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has commissioned the newly constructed Nigerian Army Barracks in Asokoro, Abuja. The state-of-the-art facility, named after the President, marks a significant milestone in efforts to improve the welfare and living conditions of Nigerian Army personnel as they fulfill their constitutional duty to defend the nation. During the commissioning ceremony, President Tinubu emphasized that the project underscores the Federal Government's dedication to prioritizing the welfare of troops.

Describing the troops as the nation’s heroes, President Tinubu praised their resilience and steadfastness in ensuring Nigeria’s security. He also commended the Army leadership for their vision and execution of the barracks project, as well as the collective contributions of all personnel who ensured its timely completion. He urged the Nigerian Army to maintain continuous development, proper maintenance of facilities, and a steadfast commitment to troop welfare. In his remarks, the Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lt Gen Olufemi Oluyede, expressed gratitude to President Tinubu for his exceptional support for the Nigerian Army. He noted that naming the barracks after the President was a gesture of appreciation for his efforts to address accommodation challenges and strengthen the operational capacity of the Army. Lt Gen Oluyede acknowledged the contributions of his predecessors, Lt Gen Farouk Yahaya and the late Lt Gen Taoreed Lagbaja, who initiated and pursued the project to address the critical housing needs of Army personnel. He revealed that phases 1 and 2 of the project have been completed, providing accommodation for 614 personnel, including 170 officers, 444 soldiers, and their families. He expressed optimism that phases 3 and 4 would be completed expeditiously with the continued support of the Federal Government.

He also commended the Army leadership for their vision and execution of the barracks project, as well as the collective contributions of all personnel who ensured its timely completion. He urged the Nigerian Army to maintain continuous development, proper maintenance of facilities, and a steadfast commitment to troop welfare. In his remarks, the Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lt Gen Olufemi Oluyede, expressed gratitude to President Tinubu for his exceptional support for the Nigerian Army. He noted that naming the barracks after the President was a gesture of appreciation for his efforts to address accommodation challenges and strengthen the operational capacity of the Army. Lt Gen Oluyede acknowledged the contributions of his predecessors, Lt Gen Farouk Yahaya and the late Lt Gen Taoreed Lagbaja, who initiated and pursued the project to address the critical housing needs of Army personnel. He revealed that phases 1 and 2 of the project have been completed, providing accommodation for 614 personnel, including 170 officers, 444 soldiers, and their families. He expressed optimism that phases 3 and 4 would be completed expeditiously with the continued support of the Federal Government. The COAS pledged the Army’s loyalty to the Constitution and the Government, reaffirming its commitment to fostering national security and socio-economic development. He also called on the government and Nigerians to continue supporting the welfare of troops, whose dedication ensures a secure and prosperous Nigeria. As part of the day’s activities, President Tinubu also performed the groundbreaking ceremony for an ultra-modern Armed Forces Complex in Abuja, further demonstrating the administration's commitment to strengthening the nation’s security infrastructure.

Mullah Zaeef's Deception and the revelation of General Ehsan- too little too late? A recent video, posted by veteran journalist Tahir Khan sahab, has finally shed light on one of the most controversial diplomatic incidents of the post-9/11 era. The footage features a long-awaited statement from General Ehsan, the former Director-General of Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), offering his first public account regarding the disposition of former Taliban Ambassador Mullah Abdul Salam Zaeef. General Ehsan's remarks constitute a bombshell disclosure, fundamentally challenging the established narrative. ▪️He revealed that Mullah Zaeef, while enjoying sanctuary in Pakistan, became a major source of friction for the Pakistani govt. ▪️For months - not for days or hours, but months, Pakistani officials, employed a mix of soft diplomacy and extreme persistence, trying to resolve the issue. As Pakistan withdrew their recognition of TTA govt, so legally, technically and ethically it was Zaeef's place to be and he has to vacate the premises of embassy. ▪️The General claims that Pakistani authorities repeatedly implored Zaeef, even to the point of a humiliating display of deference, to simply vacate his embassy residence and assume a low-profile existence as a normal Afghan expatriate anywhere within Pakistan’s territory. ▪️Zaeef, however, was in non-compliance. Instead of accepting the state’s proposal, he continuously engaged with the international press, effectively using his position to conduct a media campaign that severely embarrassed and vexed the Pakistani government. ▪️This protracted standoff ultimately led to a resolution that contradicts the pervasive narrative of betrayal. The former DG ISI definitively stated that Pakistan's final action was to escort Zaeef to the Torkham border crossing, where he was formally handed over to the then existing Afghan authorities. ▪️General Ehsan's key takeaway is unambiguous: Pakistan never carried out a rendition of Mullah Zaeef to the United States. ▪️This refutes the long-held claim of a Pakistani betrayal, propagated widely by Zaeef and his sympathetic elements. ▪️Adding to the complexity, the book detailing Zaeef’s version of events was reportedly first published in India before achieving wider global circulation. ▪️It is noted that Zaeef's credibility is suspect, as he was reportedly not even fully accepted by the Afghan Taliban upon his eventual return to Afghanistan, yet his operational narrative continues to be leveraged by such entities and certain domestic political and media constituencies to undermine Pakistan's state standing and stature. ▪️ How there is now a grievance from General Ehsan and the Pakistani officialdom. If this wasn't a strategic communication failure, then what was? Given that the factual matrix of the case was known for nearly a quarter of a century, why was the official counter-narrative wasn't thrown out? ▪️This prolonged information vacuum allowed a false story to be successfully weaponized, contributing to the radicalization of youth and the fomenting of insurgency. This is on us - that we failed to reveal such details and now paying the price or established falsehood as a gospel of truth.

How it is not Politics? - Talking about a political leader for 120 min. How it is not Politics? -How it is not Politics? Calling him "Security threat" when national and international surveys show more than 70 % popularity for him, and when his party holds simple majority in parliament despite all rigging and manipulations. This narrative was busted even then and there by the journalists' questions who reminded DGISPR that in the past Fatima jinnah, Liaqat Ali khan, Hussain Sehrwardi, Bacha khan and Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto were also labelled "anti state" by the establishment. - How it is not Politics? Calling him "traitor like Mujeeb" when there is no evidence of traitorship against Mujeeb objectively. The Government of Pak filed "Agartala conspiracy case" against Mujeeb in 1968 and then took it back in 1969 itself. When nowhere in Hamood ur rehman commission report, the word "traitor" is mentioned for mujeeb, rather he was the most popular leader then securing 160 seats vs 82 seats of PPP. Imran Khan's scenario is no different. Securing more than 170 seats and yet a party with 17 seats was given the government, and the leader of the majority was incarcerated. By calling Khan traitor like Mujeeb, the DG ISPR admits that even today Yahya like mentality is governing. How it is not Politics? - How it is not Politics? Calling the CM of 40 million people of KPK "Barking" - the so called inflated narrative that it is the most professional and disciplined institution has been self-bulldozed. -How it is not Politics? Criticizing a party chair man for scolding his own party members for joining the NDU meeting. That was a big surprise to me. The same establishment has been calling PTI members "traitors and foreign agents and anti state" for the last 3 years, and has been filing FIRs against them through "namaloom" people, yet their anger about an internal affair of a political party is surprising when the Chairman calls a few "mir jafar". And why would he not? When a state institution has become a political party in totality; doing such press conferences, doing such political victimization; then why would the party chairman of a real political party not forbid his members to go to sessions of such institution who is no more neutral. And how criticizing such response of Khan is not Politics? How it is not Politics? Calling him "a beggar taking "kashkol" in front of India" if he were the PM at the time of May war? It is factually wrong. When in Feb 2019, India did surgical strike, it was PM Imran Khan who gave them a befitting reply. The way anger wipes away basic facts is genuinely surprising. How it is not Politics? Calling him "mentally sick" when all the medical check ups in the jail proved that he is mentally sane and sound proves nothing but a knee jerk response to his naming of the Army chief 2 days ago. How it is not Politics and personal grudge? The pressor starts with Imran Khan and ends with Imran khan, and then with a plea that "Keep us away from the Politics" I am surprised.

ON FALSEHOODS PEDDLED BY MR. GACHAGUA It has come to our attention that Mr. Rigathi Gachagua has once again chosen to recklessly peddle blatant falsehoods in a desperate attempt to mislead the public for cheap political mileage. 1. FALSE CLAIM: That the President met “other people” during his visit to Mandera This claim is not just false it is a calculated, malevolent lie. As a leader who personally accompanied H.E. President William Ruto from the moment he landed in Mandera to the moment he departed, I affirm without fear of contradiction that the President only met officially recognized Mandera leaders and the public in open forums. Every aspect of the President’s one-day itinerary was transparent and in the public domain. No private, backdoor, or suspicious meetings took place. The suggestion by Mr. Gachagua that the President met with unknown individuals is a shameful fabrication designed to sow division and confusion among the people. It is deeply unfortunate that a man who once postured as a symbol of truth has now reduced himself to a serial purveyor of falsehoods, unable to recall the last time he spoke the truth. Such conduct is not only disgraceful it is dangerous, especially when deployed to distort presidential engagements with historically marginalized communities. 2. FALSE CLAIM: That security vetting for Northern Kenya has been removed Mr. Gachagua’s assertion that the government has removed vetting is yet another deliberate distortion of facts. What President Ruto stated clearly in Mandera is that the discriminatory and excessive bureaucratic vetting that has for years been selectively imposed on communities in the Northern Frontier District (NFD) must end. The President emphasized that all Kenyans must be subjected to one uniform standard of vetting fair, consistent, and constitutional without stigmatization based on region or ethnicity. To twist this clear and just position into a false narrative of national insecurity is reckless, dishonest, and deeply disrespectful to the people of Northern Kenya who have suffered decades of systemic exclusion and profiling. The American Government must not fall for the dilutions and desperations for attention and favours using fabricated lies from Mr. Gachagua. DCI must do its job. The Honors is upon Gachagua to substantiate his claims with evidence or face the law. The burden of proof for all his lies with him.

BREAKING: I was one of the nine people in Charlie Kirk’s private group chat. What has now come to light is shocking. Andrew Kolvet, Charlie’s right hand man, acting in good faith, sent the screenshots to Joe Kent. As the former head of counterterrorism, Andrew was seeking professional insight before the murderer was caught. Joe pressured him to release the messages publicly to stir suspicion toward Israel. Andrew refused. The very next day, Candace Owens “coincidentally” had obtained and posted the exact same messages, and pushed the false narrative that Charlie was killed by Israel. That dangerous lie has been completely disproven, yet the damage was done. We now know that Joe Kent, although a war hero, turned failed politician and known leaker, deliberately leaked those texts to Candace. Joe Kent, driven by his anti-Israel agenda, his desire for headlines, and recent influence from his new wife with Russian and anti-Israel ties, chose to betray trust and fuel ugly division. He is also now stating he will testify in defense of Tyler Robinson, Charlie’s murderer. Along with Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens, he is utilizing clickbait and conspiracy theories stemming from a national tragedy to promote his own selfish agendas. Thank you to Erin Molan for hosting me, and being a voice of truth and reason among so many who are spreading propaganda. #trending #news

Former British Army officer Richard Kemp has come under fire after describing himself as "a goy, a mere goy" while delivering a speech extolling Israel and the Israeli military. Speaking at a JNS event, Kemp declared that Jewish people were placed on Earth to be "a light unto nations" and made controversial claims that the Israeli military was showing the world how future wars should be fought. Critics accused Kemp of glorifying Israel at a time when the country faces mounting international condemnation over its actions in Gaza, Lebanon and other neighbouring countries. Others questioned his use of the term "goy", which has often been used by Israelis as a dismissive label for non-Jews, as some religious texts and commentaries have portrayed non-Jews as akin to cattle. They also criticised what they viewed as a subordinate and deferential tone from a former senior British military figure praising a foreign state and its armed forces. The remarks have fuelled wider debate over Western political and military support for Israel, with opponents arguing that Kemp's comments reflect an unquestioning admiration for a country facing allegations of genocide and serious violations of international law.
