🌎 The New World Order
🌎 The New World Order Ten years had passed since the skies of Jerusalem burned. The war that began with a single missile had reshaped everything — borders, beliefs, even the meaning of freedom.

Pakistan’s Silent Role in Afghanistan’s Wars
Between Borders and Bullets: Pakistan’s Silent Role in Afghanistan’s Wars The rugged terrain along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border has long been more than just mountains, passes, and valleys. It is a region where national boundaries meet tribal loyalties, where political ideologies travel in the smoke of gunfire, and where the ambitions of states and ideologues spill across invisible lines. In the story of the Afghan wars, Pakistan has not merely been a neighbor—it has been a player, a conduit, a sanctuary, and sometimes a battleground in its own right.

The Cartographer’s Promise
The year was 1571, and the ocean was not yet tamed by man — a living creature, unpredictable and mysterious. In a tiny port town just across the water from Lisbon, a mapmaker named Mateo Alvarado hunched at his desk, the pungent aroma of ocean and parchment-old thick in the room. His hand shook a little as he drew a thin line of shore — a location no captain had ever come back to tell tales about.

He had traveled across Peru, studying Incan architecture and astronomy, fascinated by the way the civilization seemed to blend stone and sky with uncanny precision.

Dr. B. R. Ambedkar: Beyond Politics -The Civilizational Architect Who Rewrote the Destiny of Humanity
In the vast chronicle of human history, few individuals have transcended the boundaries of time, ideology, and politics. Among them stands Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar, a name that cannot be confined to the narrow frame of a “politician.” To call Ambedkar merely a political figure is to diminish the cosmic scale of his thought and the transformative depth of his mission. He was not a seeker of power_ he was a creator of conscience, a builder of civilization, and a philosopher of equality whose words still echo as moral thunder across the world.

The Forgotten Fields: Part I – Baseball
If you stand on a quiet summer field somewhere in the Midwest, you can still hear it... The faint echo of leather against leather, the soft thud of a ball in a glove, the ghostly cheer of a crowd that has long since gone home. The weeds have grown over the baselines, the scoreboard has lost its numbers, and the bleachers sag beneath decades of rain. But the sound remains. It drifts on the wind like a hymn.

The Forgotten Fields - A 10 Part Series
By The Iron Lighthouse If you listen closely on a still summer evening, you can almost hear them... faint echoes carried on the wind. The crack of a wooden bat. The whistle of a coach with more spirit than players. The hum of a crowd huddled on splintered bleachers, wrapped in the kind of excitement that never needed a scoreboard to matter.
