By Niaz Alam Verified| Dhaka Tribune Verified As a young child I really wanted to become an astronaut. Mainly this was a by-product of watching television during the era of Apollo moon missions. The rest of the time, my imagination only stretched as far as being a footballer or ice-cream seller. Over 50 years have passed since the last man left the moon. While the internet age uses many more satellites, these are mostly confined to close Earth orbits.
By Niaz Alam Verified| Dhaka Tribune Verified Outside the QEII conference centre in Westminster, a loudspeaker is blaring out David Byrne singing “we’re on the road to nowhere.”The song is being played by a few protesters amid central London’s ever-present crowds of tourists. It scarcely matters that their protest was about Brexit, the chorus could apply to almost any aspect of the current state of the United Kingdom.
By Niaz Alam Verified| Dhaka Tribune Verified The Hamas attacks of October 7 upon the Re'im music festival and nearby kibbutzim killed over 1,300 Israeli civilians, mostly inside their own homes. For Israelis, this death toll was especially horrifying because it happened on an unprecedentedly large scale. By itself the murder of 260 unarmed festival goers was the deadliest ever attack by violent Islamists against people at a music event anywhere in the world and the worst single massacre of Israeli civilians.
