شهدت اليوم مراسم وضع حجر الأساس لمجمع مركز طيران الإمارات الهندسي الجديد في دبي الجنوب، باستثمار يبلغ 5.1 مليار دولار، في خطوة استراتيجية تعكس رؤية صاحب السمو الشيخ محمد بن راشد آل مكتوم، نائب رئيس الدولة رئيس مجلس الوزراء حاكم دبي، رعاه الله، وتجسد طموحات طيران الإمارات طويلة الأمد وتعزّز الثقة بمستقبل قطاع الطيران في دولة الإمارات.
يعكس هذا المشروع توجهاً واضحاً نحو بناء منظومة هندسية متكاملة ترتكز على توحيد الخبرات والكفاءات والبنية التحتية والقدرات التصنيعية تحت مظلة واحدة، بما يعزّز مكانة طيران الإمارات كشريك هندسي استراتيجي قادر على تلبية متطلبات قطاع الطيران إقليمياً وعالمياً، انسجاماً مع مستهدفات أجندة دبي الاقتصادية D33، وترسيخاً لمكانة دبي مركزاً اقتصادياً عالمياً ومحوراً للتميّز في صناعة الطيران، وتمهيداً لمرحلة جديدة من النمو لدبي ولدولة الإمارات ولمنظومة الصيانة والإصلاح والعمرة على مستوى العالم.
Today, we’ve broken ground on our new US$ 5.1 billion ultra-modern engineering complex at Dubai South which will become the world’s most modern and advanced maintenance, repairs and overhaul (MRO) facility when completed in 2030.
Very informative
خلال جولة تفقدية في مطار دبي الدولي الذي يواصل للعام الثاني عشر على التوالي تصدر حركة السفر الدولية، اطلعت على سير العمليات والخدمات المقدمة للمسافرين، كما تفقدت مركز العمليات التابع لشرطة دبي في المطار كما تابعت خلال الجولة أحدث الخدمات الذكية التي تضمن أفضل تجربة للمسافرين في العالم ... خلال الجولة، التقيت فريق عمل طيران الإمارات التي تغطي اليوم بشبكتها 123 وجهة في 65 دولة وتواصل توسيع عملياتها وتعزيز مكانتها الريادية ... ثقتنا كبيرة بفريق يقوده أحمد بن سعيد، في مواصلة ترسيخ مكانة دبي مطاراً للعالم.
Being Arab did not save Abu Jahl from the Hellfire, and being Persian did not prevent Salman al-Farsi from reaching honor. Nor did being a former slave prevent Bilal ibn Rabah from attaining a lofty status. Faith is not measured by lineage, but by sincerity and deeds
If Allah has written something for you, it will reach you - no matter what.
There is no need to feel anxious or overwhelmed, and no reason to rush.
Everything arrives exactly at the time
He has chosen. Trust that what Allah has destined for you is already on its way to you.
Divorce rates are high in this generation for one simple reason. People don't understand what marriage actually is. Social media made everyone believe there's always someone better out there, a richer man, a prettier woman, a more exciting life, but comparison kills loyalty.
As we wake up this morning to the news of a 2 week ceasefire. As a resident of UAE…I want to thank and appreciate the @modgovae and the brave men & women of UAE armed forces that kept us safe throughout these few very tense weeks. The UAE govt delivered all services to its citizens & residents without pause. Thank you for every intercept & every alert. Thank you for keeping us and our children safe. Thank you UAE for protecting & preserving our way of life. ❤️🇦🇪❤️🇦🇪❤️🇦🇪

Javier Bardem says “no to war and free Palestine” at the #Oscars, earning a huge round of applause from everyone in the room.

Even their children are brave....
جانے کچھ لوگوں کے اپنے رب سے کس طرح کے تعلقات ہیں جو اپنی تلاوت کی تاثیر سے سامنے والے کی روح تک کو جھنجوڑ ڈالتے ہیں
my bro who divorced 2 weeks ago told me this:
“all of us are selective sinners. we choose the sin we are comfortable with, and judge others that commit the ones we are not comfortable with.”
The world, Europe, and Spain have faced this critical moment before. In 2003, a few irresponsible leaders dragged us into an illegal war in the Middle East that brought nothing but insecurity and pain.
Our response then must be our response now:
NO to violations of international law.
NO to the illusion that we can solve the world’s problems with bombs.
NO to repeating the mistakes of the past.
NO TO WAR.

One of the best tweets you will ever read…
I am a diplomatic aide in the Sultanate of Oman's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
My job is logistics. When two countries that cannot speak to each other need to speak to each other, I book the rooms. I prepare the briefing materials. I make sure the water glasses are the right distance apart. You would be surprised how much of diplomacy is water glasses. Too close and it feels informal. Too far and it feels like a tribunal. I have a chart.
We had a very good month.
Since January, Oman has been mediating indirect talks between the United States and Iran on Iran's nuclear program. The talks were held in Muscat and in Geneva. The Americans would sit in one room. The Iranians would sit in another room. I would walk between them. My Fitbit says I averaged fourteen thousand steps on negotiation days. The hallway between the two rooms at the Royal Opera House conference center is forty-seven meters. I walked it two hundred and twelve times in February. This is good for my cardiovascular health. It was less good for my knees. Both are in the service of peace.
By mid-February, we had something.
Iran agreed to zero stockpiling of enriched uranium. Not reduced stockpiling. Zero. They agreed to down-blend existing stockpiles to the lowest possible level. They agreed to convert them into irreversible fuel. They agreed to full IAEA verification with potential US inspector access. They agreed, in the Foreign Minister's phrase, to "never, ever" possess nuclear material for a bomb. I have worked in diplomacy for seven years. I have never seen a country agree to this many things this quickly. I made a spreadsheet of the concessions. It had fourteen rows. I color-coded it. Green for confirmed. Yellow for pending. By February 21 the spreadsheet was entirely green. I printed it. It is on my desk in Muscat. It is still green.
That phrase took eleven days. "Never, ever." The Iranians initially offered "not seek to." The Americans wanted "will not under any circumstances." We landed on "never, ever" at 2:14 AM on a Tuesday in Muscat. I typed the final version myself. I used Times New Roman because Geneva prefers it. The document was fourteen pages. I was proud of every comma.
Here is what they said, in the order they said it.
February 24: "We have a once-in-a-generation opportunity." — The Foreign Minister, private briefing to Gulf Cooperation Council ambassadors. I prepared the slide deck. Slide 14 was the implementation timeline. Slide 15 was the signing ceremony logistics. I had reserved the Palais des Nations in Geneva, Room XX. It seats four hundred. We discussed pen brands for the signing. The Iranians preferred Montblanc. The Americans had no preference. I ordered twelve Montblanc Meisterstucks at six hundred and thirty dollars each. They arrive on Tuesday.
February 27, 8:30 AM EST: "The deal is within our reach." — The Foreign Minister, CBS Face the Nation. He sat across from Margaret Brennan. He said broad political terms could be agreed "tomorrow" with ninety days for technical implementation in Vienna. He said, and I wrote this line for the briefing card he carried in his breast pocket: "If we just allow diplomacy the space it needs." He praised the American envoys by name. Steve Witkoff. Jared Kushner. He said both had been constructive.
I watched from the Four Seasons Georgetown. The minibar had cashews. I ate the cashews. They were nineteen dollars. The most expensive cashew I have ever eaten. But it was a good morning and we were within our reach.
February 27, 2:00 PM EST: Meeting with Vice President Vance, Washington. The Foreign Minister presented our progress. Zero stockpiling. Full verification. Irreversible conversion. "Never, ever." The Vice President used the word "encouraging." His aide took notes on an iPad. The aide did not make eye contact for the last nine minutes of the meeting. I noticed this. Noticing things is the only part of my job that is not water glasses.
February 27, 4:00 PM EST: "Not happy with the pace." — President Trump, to reporters.
Not happy with the pace.
We had achieved zero stockpiling. Full IAEA verification. Irreversible fuel conversion. Inspector access. And the phrase "never, ever," which took eleven days and cost me two hundred and twelve trips down a forty-seven-meter hallway.
Every American president since Carter has failed to get Iran to agree to this. Forty-five years.
Not happy with the pace.
February 27, 9:47 PM EST: The Foreign Minister's flight departs Dulles for Muscat. I am in the seat behind him. He is reviewing Slide 14 on his laptop. The implementation timeline. Vienna technical sessions. The signing ceremony. The pens.
I fall asleep over the Atlantic. I dream about water glasses.
February 28, 6:00 AM GST: I wake up to push notifications.
February 28: "The United States has begun major combat operations in Iran." — President Trump.
Operation Epic Fury. Coordinated airstrikes. The United States and Israel. Tehran. Isfahan. Qom. Karaj. Kermanshah. Nuclear facilities. IRGC bases. Sites near the Supreme Leader's office. Israel called their half Operation Roaring Lion. Someone in both governments spent time choosing these names. Epic Fury. Roaring Lion. I spent eleven days on "never, ever." They spent it on branding. The President said Iran had "rejected American calls to halt its nuclear weapons production."
Rejected.
Iran had agreed to zero stockpiling. Iran had agreed to full verification. Iran had agreed to "never, ever." Iran had agreed to everything in a fourteen-page document that I typed in Times New Roman.
The President said they rejected it.
I do not know which document the President was reading. I know which one I typed.
February 28, 18:45 UTC: Iran internet connectivity: four percent. — NetBlocks, confirmed by Cloudflare. Ninety-six percent of a country went dark. You cannot negotiate with a country at four percent connectivity. You cannot negotiate with a country that is being struck. You cannot negotiate. This is not a political opinion. This is a logistics assessment.
February 28: The governor of Minab reported forty girls killed at an elementary school.
I do not have logistics for that. There is no slide for that. The water glass chart does not cover that.
February 28: Lockheed Martin: up. Northrop Grumman: up. RTX: up. Dow futures: down six hundred and twenty-two points. Gold: five thousand two hundred and ninety-six dollars. An analyst at AInvest published a note titled "Iran Strikes: Tactical Plays." The note recommended positions in oil, defense stocks, and gold.
The most expensive cashew I have ever eaten was nineteen dollars. The most expensive pen I have ever ordered was six hundred and thirty dollars. The math suggests I have been working in the wrong industry. Defense stocks do not require water glasses. Defense stocks do not require eleven days. Defense stocks require one morning.
February 28: Israel closed its airspace and its schools. Iran launched retaliatory missiles toward US bases in the Gulf. The Supreme Leader promised a "crushing response." Israel's defense minister declared a permanent state of emergency. Everyone is using words I recognize in an order I do not. I recognize "permanent." I recognize "emergency." I do not recognize them next to each other. In diplomacy, nothing is permanent and everything is an emergency. In war it is the reverse.
February 28: The Foreign Minister has not made a public statement.
The briefing card is still in his breast pocket. It still says "within our reach."
