Then vs now. Such a shame.

Trump's threats to carry out war crimes against Iran are now routine, but the way in which no country really opposes them is still remarkable.

Eight years ago, I wrote this piece on Qatar’s strategic water reservoirs project. Looking back, the message still stands: water infrastructure is not only about engineering, but also resilience, security, sustainability, and long-term planning.

The concept of God as Intellect, Logos is Persian (Ahura Mazda, menog). The idea of Light is Persian. The idea of Resurrection is Persian. And the idea of devil is Persian too. Almost everything Western tradition values most has Persian origins.

@SkyNews @DominicWaghorn It’s pathetic that Sky still fails to use the correct, legal, documented, and valid name for that body of water! It’s called Persian Gulf! And it’s been called Persian Gulf through millennia! You are so illiterate that you don’t know it or you are so biased!

3) Perhaps when this crisis settles, countries may again find reasons to collaborate on shared environmental challenges.

1) Seven years ago we published Environmental Challenges in the MENA Region: The Long Road from Conflict to Cooperation. At the time, the region was already experiencing significant political tension.

2) The idea was that environmental challenges—water, climate, energy—might provide neutral ground for cooperation. Today the region is again facing devastating conflict. What we could not imagine then is the scale of environmental and energy consequences modern wars can create.
