Absolutely correct @araghchi as Iranian Nation & Armed Forces have demonstrated their Prowess & Professionalism in the face of aggression from US & Israel! Iran is natural ally of the Makkah Triple Alliance as these 4 Major Muslim Middle Powers can Protect the greater Middle East with their Unity & Strength!
Half the accounts on social media feel like paid mercenaries today. Standardized script, fake profiles, & endless toxicity designed to disrespect religious sentiments & target specific nations. It’s not public opinion—it’s manufactured hate paid for by silent handlers. #CyberWar
State-sponsored cyber propaganda is out of control. Countries are pouring billions into troll farms, bots, & misinformation campaigns just to malign & tarnish the global image of their rivals. It’s high time social media platforms held these bad actors accountable.

If you wanted attention, DW, all you had to do was ask!
In this pathetic documentary, the conclusion came first. Pakistan was then edited to fit it. The method is embarrassingly transparent:
1. Show a radical cleric.
2. Cut to a nuclear facility.
3. Add ominous music.
4. Mention instability.
5. Let insinuation replace evidence.
Pakistan is described as having “illegally developed” nuclear weapons. Illegally under which law? Pakistan was never a party to the NPT and therefore did not violate an NPT obligation by acquiring nuclear weapons. DW may disapprove of the program, but moral disapproval is not a legal argument, Folks.
Notice the asymmetry in language! India developed nuclear weapons. Pakistan “deceived the world.” India’s programme is treated as a strategic fact. Pakistan’s is narrated as criminal cunning. Mashallah!
The documentary briefly mentions 1971, India’s conventional advantage and Pakistan’s loss of faith in external guarantees but refuses to let any of that seriously explain Pakistan’s nuclear choices. Context is included only so it can be ignored.
Then comes the old “Islamists might seize the bomb” trope. No evidence of penetration of nuclear command structures is presented. No demonstrated breach is identified. No serious institutional assessment is offered.
Just militants somewhere in Pakistan and therefore loose nukes.
Even DW’s own interviewees acknowledge centralized command and control, multiple security layers and specialized forces protecting nuclear assets. But every reassuring fact is treated as an inconvenient interruption before the awful soundtrack returns to impending catastrophe.
DW uses AQ Khan's case as a permanent substitute for analysing Pakistan’s present nuclear-security architecture. History becomes guilt without expiry, who knew!
But that's not all! of course, there comes Kashmir, which is handled with similar intellectual laziness. Instead of seriously examining disputed sovereignty, war, repression, failed diplomacy and competing legal claims, Pakistan’s position is reduced to a psychological obsession arising from its Muslim identity.
A retired brigadier making expansive comments about nuclear use is presented as a window into Pakistan’s doctrine.
He is not the National Command Authority.
He is not the Strategic Plans Division.
He is not an official doctrinal document.
But guess what! nuance would spoil the drama.
The documentary also bundles together military businesses, hospitals, gated housing, blasphemy laws, Imran Khan, Afghan refugees, illegal weapons markets and attacks on Christians.
These are serious issues. BUT they are not evidence that Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal is insecure.
Here's the central fraud: collapsing four separate questions into one.
-Pakistan’s democratic governance.
-Its civil-military imbalance.
-Its internal security challenges.
-Its nuclear command and control.
DW treats them as interchangeable because differentiation would require actual analysis.
The final product is the standard Western Pakistan story:
-Too poor to govern itself.
-Too religious to be trusted.
-Too militarized to be democratic.
-Too unstable to possess nuclear weapons.
Pakistan has serious problems. None of them should be denied or romanticized. But a credible documentary would distinguish between nuclear safety, nuclear security, political stability and democratic governance. It would examine institutions, procedures, doctrine and evidence. It would compare Pakistan with other nuclear powers. It would ask whether the risks it highlights are demonstrated, plausible or merely imagined.
Strip away the ominous soundtrack and all that remains is a tired collection of stereotypes. The only real danger in this documentary is losing sixty minutes you will never get back.
Seeing this 52-minute documentary leaves little doubt that @DeutscheWelle has done such a crude, intellectually dishonest, hatchet job of raising alarm about Pakistan’s nuclear program by questioning its legitimacy & safety, recycling old propaganda to link it to religious extremism! For example, the documentary starts off with the laughable proposition that Pakistan ‘illegally developed’ The Bomb, as if there’s a legal path to acquiring nuclear weapons, which Germany’s friends like India & Israel may have pursued! Then this documentary goes on to say the Pakistan Government ‘officially revealed’ the Bomb via the nuclear tests in 1998, WITHOUT MENTIONING that Pakistan’s tests were in response to the nuclear tests of India, also the architect of nuclearisation of South Asia, a fact that Deutsche Welle conveniently overlooks in its quest to demonise Pakistan! Given these low standards of professionalism of Germany’s ‘state-funded international broadcasting network’, it is perhaps no accident that Germany’s own international standing has fallen, since Germany suffered a humiliating defeat in elections to the UN Security Council in June 2026, losing to Austria & Portugal. Ironically, this defeat at the UN coincided with the first anniversary of German Chancellor Merzl’s shocking acclaim of Israeli aggression against Iran in June 2025, when he said ‘Israel is doing our dirty work’ & ‘rules of international law do not apply to Iran’!
#DW has run an absurd fiction about Pakistan's nukes mixing it with discarded themes like an 'Islamist takeover' threat. Worse, it has unethically rehashed information gathered through stealth and deception, misused borrowed visuals filmed years ago to stitch together a yawn-inducing drivel!
No self-respecting outlet would touch material like this with a barge pole much less place its logo on to such trash.
The production team that came to Pakistan in 2024 disguised as "professionals" clearly had a dirty mission. It's now clear what it was---Pakistan Bashing. DW should be ashamed of itself and should be renamed GW: Gobbles Welle.

@ranjha001 The #US and #Israeli influence in the Middle East has driven the funding of proxies to contain rivals on equal terms. I suspect you hold strong Takfiri leanings or a paid agenda aimed at maligning the sovereignty and true character of the Islamic Republic of #Iran.
I previously reported that the growth rate and composition of Trump's wealth gain in office are unprecedented in recent history.
Upon request, here is the data on the relative size of Trump's presidential windfall. The extent of his self-enrichment is even more striking.
@ranjha001 This is minor compared to the actions taken by the US and Israel against a sovereign state, including the tragedy involving innocent children at the Minab school.
Bro, on what agenda are you working?
Saga of Saudi-US Nuclear Deal where Israeli intervention changed terms already agreed between Riyadh & Washington! Famous Politician/Commentator, Pat Buchanan, was right, when he remarked in 1990: “not just Gaza & West Bank but Washington, DC, too are Israeli-occupied territory”!
