I keep seeing Pakistanis claiming Pakistan is “betraying Iran.” Betraying Iran how, exactly?

Iran is our neighbour and a fellow Muslim country, but Pakistan has no mutual defence pact requiring us to fight for Tehran. With Saudi Arabia, we have a signed Strategic Mutual Defence Agreement under which aggression against one is treated as aggression against both. Pakistan cannot tear up an actual treaty because some Twitter revolutionaries are emotionally attached to Tehran.

Pakistan still did everything realistically possible for Iran. Islamabad mediated between Tehran and Washington and helped broker the Islamabad MoU, securing major concessions favourable to Iran including sanctions relief, access to frozen assets, reconstruction support and maintaining the nuclear status quo during negotiations. That was probably the best any mediator could have achieved. Yet Tehran’s leadership kept escalating like it had a fire under its ass, and now Pakistan is somehow being blamed for honouring its own commitments.

And to all the fuckers screaming that Pakistan is acting as a “US proxy”: Pakistan approached iran about joining the defence pact. Even Major General Yahya Rahim Safavi, a senior adviser to Iran’s supreme leader, publicly called the pact positive and recommended that Iran, Iraq and others join it. Iran’s own president welcomed it as the beginning of a wider regional security system.

Tehran had the opportunity to help create a genuine Muslim security bloc, but chose not to turn that opening into reality. Its revolutionary rivalry with Saudi Arabia and its refusal to sit beside Riyadh as an equal partner got in the way. That was Iran’s leadership’s decision, not Pakistan’s betrayal. They preferred pretending they needed nobody, and now they are discovering that pride cannot intercept missiles.

Islam is also clear: “O believers, fulfil your contracts” (Qur’an 5:1), and the Prophet (S.A.W) said, “Muslims are bound by their conditions” (Sunan Abi Dawud 3594).

Pakistan can oppose attacks on Iran, continue pushing for peace and still fulfil its defence obligations toward Saudi Arabia. That is not betrayal. It is consistency, religious duty and basic statecraft.

@ShiaOfPali You somehow turned Palestine into a sectarian roll call

Palestinians need liberation not Iran branded Shia slogans and proxy politics

People ask, "What have Sunnis done for Palestine?" They fought Israel in 1948, 1956, 1967 and 1973. Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Iraq and others paid in blood while today's sectarian historians apparently learned the Middle East from Tik Tok edits.

And what Iran wants Arabs to do now, turn their countries into permanent battlefields run by militias, Arabs already learned the hard way. Saddam's invasion of Kuwait and Tehran's expansion through armed proxies convinced Gulf states that they needed outside security guarantees. Iran then helped create states within states in Lebanon, Iraq, Syria and Yemen, while conflicts sustained by its allies killed vast numbers of Muslims.

Palestine is increasingly used as the marketing slogan, protecting Tehran's proxy network and regional influence is the actual project. Bombing Arab infrastructure and threatening Gulf civilians does not liberate Jerusalem, it only creates more Muslim graves.

So spare us the "only Shias supported Palestine" bedtime story. You are not reading history, you are swallowing propaganda with such enthusiasm that even the propagandist would tell you to slow down.

Indian ruling party BJP caught using Roads in Pakistan's Gilgit Baltistan region as development worl by Modi.

[Shahab @hashurtag]

He’s saying this because they have finally activated their regional proxy. Keep climbing the escalation ladder. You’re at the top of it already. If you’re not building nukes then this will all come back to hurt you badly.

@hashurtag Somebody told me that iran is bombed worse than Iraq.
And I was like, kid you have no freaking clue what carpet bombing looks like and what it did to saddam's govt. You haven't seen even 5% of that yet.

[Pravin Sawhney @PravinSawhney]

Pakistan's role in West Asia will strengthen further. From facilitator to mediator to regional player to reliable security provider to GCC nations. It is the only nation which can replace the US security umbrella for the littoral GCC nations. Also fits the bill of Iran seeking an Islamic Framework to replace the US Framework.
My video on this will be online by today (Tuesday) evening!

Kill markings on an Iraqi Air Force Hawker Hunter showing two downed Israeli aircraft with an inscription:
“Lt. Saif-ul-Azam shot down two Zionist aircraft.”

@PTIofficial Their own graphic shows exports rising from $16.5 billion to nearly $18 billion. That's recovery, not collapse.

FY22 was a post covid peak, not some permanent khan miracle.

[Fahad 🇵🇰 @PAKAPK_PAK]

@PTIofficial Exports recovering from $27.8 billion to $32.3 billion and PTI's FY22 peak was heavily boosted by Post Covid demand and price boom, especially in textiles not some permanent economic miracle.
