When I started reading this book.- the last thing I anticipated was to read and agree emphatically about the struggle and guilt of a working mother!

Incomplete and over-hyped! Does not even consider all the alternate options that are out there!.isl

Shahbaz Sharif landed in Jeddah and General Asim Munir in Iran. Last time this Shia Sunni balance was seen in Aalim online.

Claim from semi-official news agency Fars (close to Iranian right wing & IRGC):

- 5 different heads of state and 8 different heads of intelligence agencies have directly contacted Iranian officials in the past few days and tried to push for a ceasefire.

- The heads of these countries openly talk about the extreme pressure on Trump from the Israel lobby.

- Trump very strongly wants a meeting with Iran and agreement. The United States is willing to eliminate Witkoff and replace him with Vance as the main negotiator, as requested by Iran (who view Witkoff as close to Netenyahu's inner circle).

- The source saying this to Fars states the Americans believe that energy prices will very rapidly increase starting from next week under current conditions and would like to avoid this.

Unbelievable scenes of destruction at Sharif University of Technology in Iran following US-Israeli airstrikes yesterday. According to @TopUnis 2026, Sharif ranks 375th out of 1504 global schools, surpassing Northeastern University, Aston University, and Dublin City University

After defeating Iran 37 times in a row, this brilliant no-strategy war they started has now been downgraded from “regime change” to “Hey! Can anyone find our pilots? Please?🥺”

Wow. What incredible progress. Absolute geniuses.

The US says an Iranian missile caused a deadly strike in Lamerd.

Six experts told us the evidence doesn’t support that, citing the missile's visual features, the way it exploded, its trajectory and multiple strikes in the area.

The F-15 downing and ongoing US rescue operation inside Iran will also serve as a test of US capabilities for a ground invasion & the challenges it would face.

So far, Iranian forces have rapidly mobilized to capture the pilots & videos show even locals firing at US helicopters.

‼️🇺🇸🇮🇷 BREAKING | According to Iranian media, at this moment in southern Iran’s Khuzestan province, the first exchange of fire has been reported between the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ special operations forces and U.S. special forces involved in search operations.

Earlier, reports emerged that U.S. helicopters opened fire on an Iranian military convoy heading toward the suspected location of downed American pilots.

A "solar shield" is protecting Pakistan from some of the price shock of the Gulf War energy crisis.

3 years ago, consumers embarked on a solar panel binge...and now 25% of Pakistan's electricity comes from solar power.

Iranians woke up to the devastating news that the pride and joy of Iran's industries has taken a direct hit in a US & Israeli attack. #Mobarakeh's Steel Plant transformed Iran to a major steel exporter despite US sanctions. What sanctions could not destroy has now been bombed.
