Why isn’t mass media more neutral?

Disclaimer: I’m not taking any sides here, nor am I provoking any of you to say it, but this has been on my mind quite a bit and I feel like saying it now: Honestly saying, I’ve always felt like the media favours Palestine over Israel way to much even tho media is supposed to be neutral.

Essays in exams, front pages of newspaper, stars on social media always talk about Palestine but seem to be painting a rather black and white “Palestine good Israel bad” picture but never seem to be willing to dwell deeper into the topic, and when they they go somewhat below the surface it’s always from Palestine’s perispective only, nothing explaining Israel’s side of story as passionately even if at all. Even in India vs Pakistan wars, you’ll find motives and aggressions from both sides easily enough if you looked.

“Stars” like Bela Hadid raise slogans demanding Israel’s dissolve under the ruse of Palestine’s independence and no one bats an eye. The founder of Human rights watch left the organisation saying that it was being biased towards Palestine and has forgotten its original purpose. A lot of funding of these pro palestine news channels comes from Pro Islamic nations organisations, most of the said countries being Palestine supporters.

Palestine is suffering, yes, but it’s not just Israel that’s making it suffer. Hamas has a major role to play too. It kills its own civilians more than Israel does. Palestine has seen some serious bloodshed since Hamas came into power but no one seems to focus on that. There’s little to no discussion about how Palestine is bleeding internally due to hamas, but only the stuff that can be used against Israel.

You’ll hear about how Israel “attacked” Gaza and most of the times it turns out to be some retaliation. We always hear about civilian deaths whose names are never revealed but no one ever wonders what civilians were doing around militant bases. We talk about how palestinians are being thrown out of Israel to show them as big aggressors and it turns out that the land was originally Israel’s territory to begin with.

I’m not being pro-Israel here, And I very well admit that it can have its fair share of violations, such as killing of the one Al-Jazeera reporter , accident or not (look, I fucking hate that platform but that doesn’t mean I condone killing of someone who didn’t do anything) but this is something that has always made me curious. It can’t be as simple as “Israel evil”, can it?

ODM Educational Group Observes ODMMUN 2024, Promoting Global Diplomacy Among Youth

Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India – ODM Educational Group hosted the ODM Model United Nations (ODMMUN) 2024, a prestigious conference dedicated to fostering global cooperation and diplomacy among young minds. This two-day event at ODM Global School, Bhubaneswar, welcomed over 400 delegates from 26 schools across India, Argentina, Kenya, and Uganda, who participated both online and in person and engaged in thought-provoking discussions on critical global issues.

The opening ceremony on September 20, 2024, was a vibrant celebration featuring a warm welcome address, the introduction of international delegates, and the presentation of the executive board members from 11 committees. The event featured notable speakers, including Mr. Alexander McLaren, Public Affairs Officer at the U.S. Consulate General in Hyderabad, who delivered a compelling address on the importance of international diplomacy and the need for global understanding among today's youth. Catherine Nakabugo, Director of the Direct Hand Foundation in Kampala, Uganda, shared her invaluable insights on promoting education and empowerment for girls. Dr. Satyabrata Minaketan, Chairman of the ODM Educational Group, articulated his vision for ODMMUN 2024, urging delegates to engage actively in shaping a brighter future. Cultural performances added a lively touch, showcasing the rich diversity of the participating nations.

The conference covered a wide range of pressing global issues, including nuclear proliferation, child malnutrition, tensions on the Korean peninsula, the Middle East situation, Sudanese refugees in Ethiopia, digital safety for women, and the right to a healthy environment. These discussions encouraged delegates to critically reflect on their roles in addressing these challenges. A highlight of the event was the active participation of 50 students from Starehe Boys' Centre in Kenya, whose valuable perspectives enriched the online committees. Additionally, the cultural Exchange students from Lubiri Secondary School, Uganda, attended in person, fostering cross-cultural dialogue and international camaraderie.

Following the opening ceremony, a plenary session and thought-provoking podcast featured Dr. Sugata Roy, UNICEF Specialist in Advocacy, and Samar Pratap Nayak, Founder of Olive Ridley Media, who shared insights on UNICEF's impact in Odisha and youth engagement with the UN.

The second day of ODMMUN 2024 featured the much-anticipated Global Village, an interactive showcase of cultural diversity where delegates presented exhibits representing their respective countries. This session facilitated cultural exchange and deepened international understanding. Students from Lubiri Secondary School delivered a captivating presentation on Uganda, while Lourdes Alejandra Santillán from Argentina shared insights on her homeland, enriching the experience for all attendees.

Delegates engaged in informal discussions during a networking lunch, forging lasting connections that extended beyond the conference. The afternoon included intense committee proceedings and a comprehensive debriefing, where delegates reviewed their resolutions and reflected on the outcomes of their discussions.

The event concluded with a grand Closing Ceremony featuring a closing address by the Deputy Secretary General. Mr. Mulindwa Musaka Sammy, a renowned global educationalist and Chairman of the Board of Governors for Secondary Schools in Uganda, emphasised the vital role of education in shaping future leaders. A cultural performance by students from Lubiri Secondary School celebrated Uganda's rich heritage, adding a vibrant touch to the proceedings.  In recognition of outstanding contributions, Mr Musaka Sammy and Dr Minaketan presented awards honouring the hard work and dedication of all delegates. The event concluded with a lively DJ Hour, where participants celebrated their achievements, reinforcing the spirit of camaraderie and unity that defined ODMMUN 2024.

As the conference wrapped up, it left an indelible mark on all participants, reinforcing the power of youth in driving global dialogue and cooperation. It also played a pivotal role in shaping future leaders by enhancing their diplomatic skills, encouraging diverse perspectives, and nurturing a sense of responsibility toward global challenges. This exposure to different viewpoints enabled students to broaden their horizons, becoming more empathetic and globally aware.

The Special Convocation of KIIT Deemed to be University on 30th May 2024 was marked by inspiring speeches and recognition of the institution’s remarkable achievements. Distinguished speakers, including the Mongolian Ambassador to India, Mr. Ganbold Dambajay, lauded the university's contributions to education and women empowerment. Every year, a special Convocation is organized for the international students studying at KIIT DU.

Altogether, 665 candidates received their degrees in the ceremony. In the field of medicine, 158 students were awarded DM, MD/MS and MBBS degrees. Similarly, 94 students were awarded BDS (Dental) and 96 M.Sc. Nursing and B.Sc. in Nursing degrees.

Among foreign students, three were awarded Ph.D. degrees, 41 received postgraduate degrees and 273 students got undergraduate degrees.

Praising KIIT, KISS, and KIMS for their efforts in empowering women, Mr. Dambajay remarked, “The real power in any household belongs to the ladies. In my country, women play a major role in society.

He encouraged the young graduates to conquer the world with their hard work and dedication towards society.

Ambassador Mr. Dambajay highlighted the historical and spiritual connections between India and Mongolia. “Mongolian-Indian relations date back to 2000 years.
