after months, we finally had our first ICOM hearing today. i was surprised to learn from info com ahid that MCC had sent an email prior to the session, citing both clauses (a) and (b) of Section 30 of the RTI Act, disclosing the following types of information would result in irrevocable damage.
(a) the ability of the government to manage the economy of the country in a beneficial manner;
(b) legitimate financial or commercial interest of a state office.
a complete reversal from their earlier position that the information would eventually be made public. makes no sense. this is about our public money, we have every right to know! it’s concerning that MCC is actively seeking to withhold this information. @adamazim@MekhaelMohamed@MaleCitymv
We’re talking about @malshasharyf and her unfair, bloated salary right now, not other corruption. Those other issues/corruption will be addressed in separate tweets.
The moment I mentioned Malsha, you immediately deflected cause she’s your friend. You were happily sharing tweets whitewashing how she got her master’s degree, while so many young people are barely surviving on 10K jobs working day and night with no time to study cause they have to eat first. I called it out. It made you angry. So you tried to change the subject by bringing up other big corruption instead. @lucasjalyl
🇮🇷 This is said to be the coffin of Ayatollah Khamenei's 14-month-old granddaughter, Zahra.
She was killed during U.S.-Israeli strikes on the day the war began, along with the Supreme Leader and much of their family.
Coffins shouldn't come in that size, but sadly they do.

@axanner Muizu knew all this yet he decided to buy drones above market rate, buy military toys, used bml dollars for rasmale’ land reclamation,fly around the globe to digitize Maldives and put every pnc bot on government payroll. Many more to be added for this list
Here's a thought experiment they don't teach in American schools.
Imagine a foreign power, significantly stronger than the United States, decided after a disputed intelligence assessment that the American government posed a threat.
It assembled a coalition, invaded, removed the government, disbanded the military, releasing hundreds of thousands of armed men into unemployment, and installed a transitional authority composed largely of exiles who had been living in the foreign power’s country for twenty years.
It then spent the next decade conducting night raids on American homes.
It ran detention facilities where Americans were held without charge and in some cases tortured.
It operated checkpoints in American cities where American citizens were stopped, searched, and sometimes killed by foreign soldiers who did not speak English and could not distinguish a civilian from a combatant and in many cases did not particularly try.
A generation of American children grew up in this environment.
Would you describe those children's resulting hostility to the foreign power as:
(A) A rational response to their lived experience
or
(B) Evidence of a cultural pathology that requires theological and anthropological analysis?
You already know the answer.
You knew it before I finished the sentence.
The exercise is only necessary because the question is never asked the right way around.

Yesterday the UN commission of inquiry published a report detailing how Israel deliberately targets & kills Palestinian children
In the early 2000, this clip was shown on Palestine TV. A few weeks later, Israel completely destroyed the Palestine TV building in the West Bank, but not before I obtained the footage from them.
I'm posting it to show you a glimpse of how these jewish supremacist parasites have been targeting and terrorizing our children for decades.
RTI can be a powerful tool for even ordinary citizens to make state institutions answerable
This is the story of how Milna was able to use RTI to do just that, for the sake of her family's wellbeing

Apparently, Lamine was a bright-eyed boy until he held up a Palestine flag. Then, he became controversial.
The journalists who make a living romanticising athletes like Muhammad Ali are the first to punish those who try to use their voice for something meaningful today.
@TeleFootball@SamJDean At just 18, Yamal is more of a man than you will ever be @SamJDean.
Keep publishing nonsense for your masters in Tel Aviv. This is all you will be remembered for.
Israel flattened Beirut in 1982.
No Hamas. No Hezbollah. No October 7 to point to then.
Just 17,000 dead Lebanese and Palestinian civilians.
Even US president then Ronald Reagan, who armed Israel, called Begin furious after seeing a photo of a 7-month-old baby with its arms blown off and said “It is a holocaust”.
They killed so many innocent people that the survivors had no choice but to pick up weapons.
Then Israel had the audacity to keep using “Self-Defense” excuse every decade.
Israel didn’t stumble into endless war. Israel built it. Brick by brick.
Own it.
Remember when Musk challenged the World Food Program to explain how he could solve world hunger with just $6 billion, they did, and he just completely ignored them?
The promise of colonialism has always been the same: surrender your dignity, abandon your dead, betray your people, and in return we’ll let you participate in your own subjugation. What an offer.
So Russia is banned from FIFA because of their invasion of Ukraine, but America is allowed to HOST THE FIFA GAMES WHILE BOMBING IRAN???
HOW DOES THAT WORK?????
