La responsabilidad pública también implica la obligación moral de no mirar hacia otro lado.
Es un honor otorgar la Orden del Mérito Civil a una voz que sostiene la conciencia del mundo: @FranceskAlbs, Relatora Especial de la ONU en el territorio palestino ocupado.
Canada should remove all sanctions on Iran, establish normalized relations with Tehran, and impose total sanctions on Israel until Palestine is liberated
It’s MY constituents who are fighting this war in Iran right now – and they deserve full transparency about the nuclear risks at play. It’s time for the U.S. government to finally acknowledge Israel’s nuclear weapons capabilities.

This is how it pans out. If SBP increases the loan limit on cars, in-line with historic levels, then there would be a sudden surge in demand of these cars (which are predominantly imported - even locally assembled have 85% import content).
So as demand increases, we import more cars. As we import more cars, we need more $$$, but we suck at earning $$$ to pay for this -- so we borrow some $$$. This goes for a few months, till we start running out of $$$ -- eventually leading to depreciation of PKR
Congratulations - you trigerred yet another avoidable currency crisis by importing more cars. As PKR depreciates, everything starts getting expensive, and we get into yet another spiral of inflation
All respect to @StateBank_Pak for holding the fort, and not giving into WhatsApp forwards, and not giving into loser demands of various industry associations.
📈When you own a stock, atleast go through the financials every quarter and listen to the analyst briefing.
This is the bare minimum. People do more research when buying a phone.
Events in Hormuz make clear that there's no military solution to a political crisis.
As talks are making progress with Pakistan's gracious effort, the U.S. should be wary of being dragged back into quagmire by ill-wishers. So should the UAE.
Project Freedom is Project Deadlock.
To be a safe haven, a country must stay clear of geopolitical rivalries. That’s what UAE was, a safe place to park capital.
Pegging itself with destabiliser in-chief (Israel) it has made its current position incompatible with the first. You can’t have your cake and eat it too!
If a foreign army occupied Texas, American militias would mine the roads.
We know this because Texans will tell you themselves. Proudly.
They have bumper stickers about it.
They have prepared for it.
The entire cultural mythology of the American gun owner is built on exactly this premise:
When "they" come, we will be ready.
"They."
Some imagined foreign force that will one day arrive to take American freedom.
The irony is total and it is never examined.
The people most loudly committed to the fantasy of armed resistance against foreign occupation are the same people who looked at Iraqis mining roads against American soldiers and called them terrorists.
The principle they claim to love, an armed population will resist occupation, they apply exclusively to themselves.
The moment someone else applies it to themselves, in an actual occupation rather than an imagined one, the principle evaporates and what remains is:
"Why do they hate us?"
@DrEliDavid@BillAckman And then see which one can survive without a nuclear state protecting it and which one can threaten other states with regards to its sovereignty.
Give everyone a couple hundred nuke and see which state progresses.
Hint: it won’t be the west.
Honestly guys, how can anyone watch this and justify it by blaming Hezbollah?
It's one thing destroying a militia and their infrastructure, it's another destroying every single home and wiping out entire villages
South Lebanon is becoming like Gaza
