I’ve been listening to the New Yorker's podcast, In the Dark (season 3) which investigates the 2005 Haditha massacre in Iraq. This incident involved a unit of US marines who murdered 25 civilians. No one should be surprised that they got away with it but

Context: What a Jewish political movement did to Palestinians: ally with British imperialism to violently expel them, eradicate their villages, confiscate their property and more. What Jews did to Germans: made outstanding contributions to culture, science, industry, and politics

@OmSamad Indeed. The article does not say that though. It stops in the middle of an interesting idea or builds on wrong assumptions

[Anne Jasim-Falher @AFalher]

I think I finally got the solution to our pains. Afghanistan must split into two countries. I am sorry to dissappoint all those who prone unity... one country for the men, one for the women. I'll work on the path to creating new generations later...

1/ During the last quarter of 2022, I met more than 400 business owners across all business/commercial sectors in Afghanistan. Here are a few thoughts on what I learned during these sessions.

A thread on the current status of the Afghan private sector;

Many, including myself, have already looked death in the eye while campaigning for #education, and we are willing to do so again, We just need a few thousand Afghan men to do so with us. This will not be the end of our dreams for a better #Afghanistan. 1/

Next? Ban on primary education for girls? How many more arrows in the heart of fathers, mothers and girls?

Those who would know the pain of oppression the best end up becoming the oppressors. Such a sad cycle of the world.

Interesting article - Why not, Baheer sahib, analysing the chances (or lack thereof) of the new-evolutionist category in Afghanistan?

[Obaidullah Baheer @ObaidullaBaheer]

Though the situation in #Afghanistan appears to be hopeless, lessons from similar cases from around the world can help us chart a path to a better future. This is my attempt at studying the different approaches towards the #Taliban barring the warmongers

For the many generous people who donate to support afghans in afghanistan: give money rather than goods packages. Trust people they will make the best spending choice for their family with the money they receive. Cash rather than bread!

Misunderstanding wartime control has serious consequences. It can lead to biased analysis, inappropriate policy, and unpreparedness when things go south

Yet status quo approaches to measuring control tend to get it all wrong.

Two new articles out. Quick thread...

[Clare Daly @ClareDalyIRL]

After decades of #US and #European misrule in the #MiddleEast - terrorism, coups, invasions and proxy wars, a legacy of misery, trauma and conflict - the EU washes its hands of it, strokes its chin, and ponders how to bring "stability to the region"? You have got to be joking.

[Anne Jasim-Falher @AFalher]

The Pew surveys have some methodological issues, but this result seems credible. In 2014, we conducted a representative survey, and a similar large majority of afghans preferred to elect their gvt rather than any other option. So... hudood + elections???

[Obaidullah Baheer @ObaidullaBaheer]

I was just asked about the possible implementation of the hudood (sharia law) in #Afghanistan on #CBC. Here is my view on the issue 🧵:
1) I know the issue will be sensationalized but I don't think it ranks in the top ten concerns of Afghans. Here is a poll for you to look at 1/

Now that i think of it, I don't know how I had survived a couple of decades without these few essential words: kho... Tauba... noshi jan... khayr ast... and begheyrat...
