Fires burning in the mind today compete with the fire that Israel has lit over Gaza’s land and in its inhabitants' lives. That began years before this war, but it found its feast in this war, as disasters always feed on disasters. “The white man" is a theme of the fire we are referring to.

Numbers are Mere Figures!https://english.aawsat.com/home/article/4399031/samir-atallah/numbers-are-mere-figuresSaturday - 24 June 2023 As of April 24th last year, India's population has exceeded 1,425,775,850 billion individuals, surpassing China in terms of population priority.
