Missiles striking Tel Aviv in 2026 is the equivalent of bombs hitting Berlin in 1945.

Righteous and also necessary.

Years ago, a journalist asked Ali Khamenei, “Who is your worst enemy, Mr. President?”

He responded without hesitation: “America.”

#BookReview Pakistan: Search for Stability Edited by Mam Maleeha Lodhi

Before I dive into the review, I wanted to say that, @LodhiMaleeha is a truly exceptional personality, an intellectual treasure for Pakistan & a mentor to many youth population of the country. She represented the nation as ambassador to the UN General Assembly, UK, and US. A brilliant writer, which I deeply admire and a former editor. Thank you for your incredible service to Pakistan, diplomatically & intellectually!

This book, authored by Pakistan’s finest intellectual and economic minds, offers a deep knowledge on historical challenges and vulnerabilities that have shape the nations present day crises. Addressing the crises also mentioned and discussed

A must read book for anyone who wants to unravel the complexities of Pakistan’s past and present, it explores the interplay of politics, economy, society, and foreign policy.

Sir @salmanaraja brilliantly traces Pakistans constitutional struggles, highlighted early hurdles like Bengali nationalism, refugee crisis & weak political foundations. He also covered - Z.A. Bhutto democratic phase, the crafting of the 1973 Constitution, Zia’s martial law, post Zia elections, and Musharraf’s 1999 era. The democratic resurgence from 2008, including 18th Amendment, is also well articulated.

Mam @LodhiMaleeha further reveals Pakistan’s critical fault lines such as center-province tensions, oligarchic elites role, feudal politics, and civil-military imbalances & governance failures. She also provided solutions as forward thinking: economic revitalization, consensual democracy, institutional overhaul, education reform, and population control stand out as pathways to progress.

Sir @ABMPildat highlighted parliamentary politics amid chaos, its evolution from pre independence roots, General Ayub’s tenure & 1970s elections. She also provided way forward: stable political future includes safeguarding civilian rule, empowering voters, strengthening local governance, and fostering effective administration.

Sir @UzairYounus examines the military’s role in Pakistan’s hybrid democracy.

On the economic front, Sir Salman Shah identifies three defining inflection points: the disastrous 1970s, the shift from hydroelectric to imported fuel based thermal power under the IPP model, and Pakistan’s failure to adopt globalisation.

Sir @KhurramHusain provides analysis on Pakistan’s debt bailout saga.

Sir @murtazahsyed, under the heading of a new development paradigm, highlighted the deadly sins of economic planners in the global south & emphasising debt relief and structural reforms (boosting exports, attracting FDI, reducing debt dependency). Shared the lessons from Asia, such as Manmohan Singh’s transformative reforms in 1990s India.

Sir @ishrat_husain reflects on China’s economic rise through its global integration policy, and discusses the uncertain fate of globalization & the rise of “beggar-thy-neighbor” policies. Lessons from East Asia’s economic miracles ensures the need for sustainable, inclusive growth, like investing in women’s labor force participation & export-driven policies etc.

Sir @AdilNajam further explains Pakistan’s youth, their potential & the challenges they face & underscoring their centrality to the nation’s future.

Sir @Tariqbanuri discussed the education crisis, and its causes such as rapid population growth, inadequate funding, poor quality, & political interference etc. His forward looking strategies like better governance, institutional autonomy, academic freedom, technology integration, & population planning offers a roadmap for reform.

Sir @AmirRana talks about religious extremism, due to socioeconomic triggers like marginalization, social exclusion, rapid modernisation, & secular-religious divides. He provides a way forward to address its political and economic roots

Renowned bureaucrat Dr. Javed Anwar Shahwani's book “The Problem of Girl Education in Post-Colonial Pakistan” is worth-reading in which he has highlighted historical and contemporary educational problems & challenges pertaining to girls education. His in-depth expert analysis and valuable recommendations are profoundly important in terms of policy-making & reforms in the education sector & other social sectors of Balochistan.

It's the formal end of separation (trichotomy) of powers. Now judiciary will merely be a subservient branch to the government which is already subservient to some outsider with all infinite limits of obedience. We hv moved from trichotomy of powers to triangularity of interests
