I have never heard of a government prepping like this for a “mass casualty incident” against its own citizens. No doubt it has happened before, but this is incredible.
Pakistan has told Islamabad hospitals to cancel elective surgeries and prepare bed space because a non-violent march is planned for 9/27.
Prime Minister Netanyahu's lies about @NYCMayor don't change the fact that Netanyahu is a wanted war criminal who has blocked justice for Americans killed on his watch.
If there's anyone who should be shamed & ashamed, it's him.
He's lucky he was even allowed into our country.
Almost 80 years ago, you were an antisemitic if you supported a genocide.
Today, you are an antisemitic if you oppose a genocide.
The people who did this to Gaza want to lecture us about the Holocaust, human rights, international law, civilization, democracy, and peace.
Palestinian American human rights lawyer Noura Erakat was arrested for attempting to speak against a $1 billion Israeli bond investment by Palm Beach County.
On 10th May 2023, 17 women including myself were detained under an MPO order.
Within just three days, Justice Safdar Saleem Shahid suspended the detention order.
Those were the last few days when the judiciary still stood between citizens and unchecked State power. Everything went downhill from there and then came the 26th and 27th Amendments.
When a nuclear armed state loses more than 1,053 officers and soldiers to terrorism in a single year while its focus remains elsewhere, that is not strength. It reflects deeper internal challenges. Their sacrifice should not be dismissed as simply the cost of freedom.
Don't let their sacrifice be overshadowed by failure.
Brazilian President Lula addresses the United Nations General Assembly in New York and declares that generations of Palestinians will carry the pain and trauma left by the Israeli genocide of women and children carried out by the Netanyahu government in Gaza.
Turkish President Erdogan:
Personally, as a father and as a grandfather who cherishes his children and grandchildren, I have to say the following from this podium with a heavy heart.
Today, Gaza is not only the world's largest graveyard for children. It is also the place with the highest rate of child amputations in the world.
Gaza has become the most inhumane and shameful concentration camp of our time.

طاقت عارضی ہے، لیکن اللہ کے سامنے اپنے اعمال کا جواب دینا اور اپنے بچوں کے لیے عزت کی میراث چھوڑنا ہی حقیقی کامیابی ہے۔
اگر کبھی کوئی حکم آئین، قانون، اور آپ کے ضمیر کے خلاف ہو... تو ایک بار ضرور سوچیں: کیا آپ اس کا جواب اللہ کو دے سکیں گے؟

It has just been learned that the barracks in Kot Lakhpat Jail, Lahore, where Imran Khan's three sisters are being held, are the same ones used to house female blasphemy convicts. It has been reported that the three sisters are being kept in separate rooms within these barracks and are not even allowed to stay together, while the remaining rooms are occupied by women accused of blasphemy. This is a severe form of mental and physical torture.
That particular barrack is situated in an isolated area far ahead near the madrasa, and it used to have a large padlock on the outside that was never seen open. The women kept inside for the crime of blasphemy had gone insane because no one was allowed to go there; mostly, only the sounds of crying could be heard.
These barracks are built in a very strange manner. Their walls are so high that one cannot even make their voice heard from there, nor does any sunlight reach inside. The women inmates who occasionally went there to clean would come back looking deeply disturbed. They are very strangely constructed barracks.
Those women had gone insane. When we were in jail, the women accused of blasphemy were only brought out from there when they had to be taken to court. The women kept inside there had gone mad. If Imran Khan's sisters are being kept there, this treatment is highly condemnable. It is essential to raise a voice against this cruelty.

⚡️🇵🇰 NEW from @DropSiteNews: Pakistan Tells Hospitals To Clear Bed Space For "Mass Casualty Incident" Ahead of Major Protest
Imran Khan’s sisters, family members, and party leaders were dragged from their homes before a planned September 27 march.

There is little choice left for the people of Pakistan.
Either remain silent while their chosen leader is imprisoned. Whilst his family is detained, his party is suppressed and justice is denied - or come out peacefully and exercise their fundamental right to protest.
You can arrest families and threaten people with violence. But you cannot imprison 250 million Pakistanis or crush the will of a generation.
No regime is more powerful than its people. The world must watch as the people of Pakistan come together to demonstrate their plea for justice, even in the face of threats of violence.
Inshallah, Pakistan’s future will be decided by its people, not by criminals who rule through fear.
Several of Imran Khan's relatives arrested. His son @Kasim_Khan_1999 tells me the authorities are “petrified of his father’s popularity”. @ImranKhanPTI
