Iran’s symbolic retaliation against Israel should not be treated as some sort of aid or defense of the people of Gaza. It isn’t. It is borne of Iran’s compulsion to demonstrate deterrence after its consulate was struck by Israel in Damascus.

Iran seeks to cultivate and exploit the legitimate sentiments of Muslims everywhere to expand its incredible influence and widen its war on literally every one of its neighbors and across the entire Arab world.

Israel seeks to exploit Iran’s compulsions and its habits to expand the theatre of its operations beyond its genocide of Palestinians in Gaza.

The more we talk about Iran—the less we will talk about Gaza.

Israel knows this.

Biden loves this.

Israel and Iran won today.

Palestinians lost. Again.

Focus on the substance. Not the noise.

Just thinking that if the purpose was to get rid of Imran khan then they just gave new life to him esp with ECP’s handling of elections

BREAKING NEWS: In an unexpected development, the Supreme Court on Friday approved former prime minister Imran Khan and ex-foreign minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi’s bail in the cipher case.

The Palestinian man who was, almost a week ago, video-taping happy faces at Al-Quds hospital, is now recording a massacre at Al-Shifa, be careful of what you post on social media, you might as well helping the opposing party locate targets: https://t.co/2PeDZErGny

#Gaza

[Fatima Ansari @FatimaAnsari_]

It is a request, please don't record videos of locations like hospitals, charitable homes etc. where refugees are being sheltered, they are already under threat, capturing a site where children are playing and having fun only act as a provocation:

Many people jumping to conclusion that Hamas did this primarily to block Israeli-Saudi deal. Skeptical of that analysis. Blocking it is a likely side effect of today's events. But other factors at play and attack was likely in the works long before normalization seemed plausible

[AssedBaig @AssedBaig]

Hamas has no airforce, no tanks, no armoured vehicles and is going up against a military that’s funded to the tune of billions by the US. Israel has advanced weapons, an airforce, air defence and has nuclear weapons. It’s not an even fight, never has been.

[Ali Rind @AliRind]

#Hammas attack on #Israel has political objectives: They want to halt normalization of relationship between Saudis and Israel by stirring Arab mass euphoria around Palestine cause thus putting Arab rulers under pressure.
The mind behind this game is obviously Iran

Palestinian bulldozers are demolishing the smart-technology barrier at the Gaza border.

“Since 2014, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has consistently tailored the state apparatus, using social and political engineering strategies, to solidify the control of his ruling Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party”

With the choice of caretaker prime minister the establishment has demonstrated that the political system will now be military driven. The gentleman is a product of the national security workshop at the NDU. The army’s long term investment has begun to bear fruit

[Fatima Ansari @FatimaAnsari_]

So they're countering the storm caused by the Intercept story by publicising the contents of a diary said to be that of Khan's wife. And shall I say, the revelations are highly absurd.

#BushraBibi

[Sana Saeed @SanaSaeed]

And here we go. Not a ‘conspiracy theory’ anymore.

The Intercept obtained the cable that PTI/Imran Khan have been claiming for months prove US involvement.

It shows the pressure came following his refusal to align with US/NATO & his visit to Russia.

Abdul Aleem Khan's interview on Geo News is outright ridiculous. One of the members of the main leadership of PTI once, the best evidence he could provide in his defense is a highly formal conversation he had with Khan on WhatsApp about the ex-Chief Minister of Punjab.
