The longer this war in Gaza goes on it plays into the hands of Putin. western distraction and Muslims countries supporting Ukraine becoming apathetic to their cause. https://www.wilsoncenter.org/article/russian-invasion-ukraine-and-arab-world-one-year-after...

Was it on a lofted trajectory? Did it impact within Pakistan?

The Turks should start talks with Syria, as their neighbor and host to millions of refugees, try to normalize relations and try to close up the fissures. A united front to address the destabilizing effect of the status quo, could hopefully allow them to just have to use diplomatic means to...

It’s a video analysis of the same article by a former U.S. soldier

The more this conflict goes on, especially if a ground invasion happens and Arab populations see their leaders as impotent to stop it the massacre, will domestic pressure grow to the point where they demand foreign troops/bases leave Muslim countries? I saw an interview with a Turkish protester...

Pakistan, IMHO, would be better off not drawing too much attention and sticking to a new missile under 2750km in range. Better to spend extra resources on warhead count, missile count, high yield, and decoys. A survivable arsenal is more valuable than a longer range one we have no need to use...

Let’s see if these “royals”, get selected if IK is not allowed to run, can get the Punjabi economic elite to pay more in taxes. When they get push back from those true elites, watch as they will reach out to the GCC and India for terms, in hopes of papering over problems for a few years, when...

Pakistan should try to build a system like the 1900 km range North Korean Pukguksong-3 (approx. 10.5 meter length and 1.5 meter in diameter) it’s only slightly wider then the Ababeel but much shorter and canisterized. Making it easier to transport. It’s lighter weight due to carbon fiber case...

But Deng consolidated power, build upon Mao’s opening up with the west and then pursued economic policies in 1978, after careful study of the other nations of the region. The political reforms came before the economic reforms. If Pakistan could increase taxes and spend some of it on...

Indeed, that part was very telling of their mindset. But is that cause their own personal perspective or their desire to be seen by the other elite of Punjab as the their natural leader. Perhaps something to do with their feelings being “Muhajirs”, if only from near Amritsar...

Economic / structural reforms come after political reforms / a new social contract. China’s government consolidated power and agreed upon a course of action under Deng; starting with the 4 SEZs to open up and “cross the river by feeling the stones” economic reforms. Japan and South Korea also...

It’s really the economic elite that don’t want to give up elite capture; most (not all) of their monopolistic control over the economy as well as their access to carve out and foreign benefits for short term personal gain at the expense long term national interests. If this segment of the...

IMHO The design will probably have a modification, so that a second catapult just after the arresting wires in an extended part of the flat top on the port side. Two catapults and two elevators are a minimum to ensure the ship can survive battle damage and generate enough sorties to be able to...

Teaching kids right from wrong. https://x.com/ksameer_4444/status/1715648338463465511?s=46 Hopefully the Irish that will join the protest in front of the White House will remind Biden how his ancestors were treated by the British with a similar mindset of expulsion and desire to appropriate...

You’re right, people won’t forget. Their lives are getting harder by the day so their memories will only grow more solidly against the status quo or any talk of returning to a Pre-PTI political landscape. Even less likely the diaspora will forget. Just burning the career politicians and leaving...

During the rebuilding but right now today, they need a way to have reliable independent water supplies and food. …going after churches? What just happened today in Gaza? What happened to one of the oldest churches in the world and in the holy land? A church has been on that site for 1600...

Tens of thousands of solar panels are small and a scalable way to distribute water desalination and electricity generation. Safer from attack than one large solar farm. There is a reason Israeli troops take solar panels on Palestinians homes in the West Bank.

No denomination is spared. Some of Christian Palestinians are still saying leave us out of it, but to Israel they are equally Palestinian.

Perhaps some of the countries, especially Muslim countries, that have recognized Israel should suspend their relations with Israel to send a message the Abraham accords can go the other way if Israel continues its policies.

Maybe it should say “Far right Indian government, due toIslamophobia, supports Israel”
