If you can’t say “Free Palestine” or speak out on any injustices against humanity across the world or at home without fear of losing a job, an opportunity, a connection, a title, or a platform, then you’re not free either and that’s the point.

They say Ben Gvir does not represent Israel. But the truth is, nobody represents Israel better than him. He is probably the most honest version of the average Israeli.

I traveled to Shiite villages in Pakistan’s Kohat, where +900 people from the area alone were deported from UAE since mid-April—without their belongings or any official explanation—because of their faith. Latest with @ElianPeltier & @viviannereim. Gift link in the next tweet.

The current government reflects the initial years of the Musharraf era: widely acclaimed abroad, yet the country remained in serious crisis at home. International acclaim means little if domestic crises remain unaddressed.

کراچی میں ابتری کا شکار سڑک نے دو بہنوں کی جان لے لی
ناظم آباد سرسید کالج کے سامنے دو بہنیں اپنے بھائی کے ساتھ موٹرسائیکل پر جاری تھیں
اچانک سڑک پر گڑھا آیا موٹرسائیکل لڑکھڑا نے بہنیں نیچے گرگئیں
قریب سے گزرنے والا آئل ٹینکر ان پرچڑھ گیا
دونوں بہنوں جائے وقوعہ پر ہلاک

Imagine if Pakistani consumers hadn’t put solar on their own, in spite of government’s attempts to disincentive it.

What a power supplier government is:
1) It cannot guarantee continuous power.
2) It charges high monopoly rates.
3) It doesn’t allow any competition.
4) It doesn’t like if you make cheaper electricity from solar on your own.

No business run like this can or should survive.

What #IslamabadTalks revealed was that Pakistani journalists, even big names and very senior reporters, are not aware of the basic ethics of journalism. They are very good at speculation, sensationalism, and turning their wishes into news, while attributing it to sources.
