My piece for Rolling Stone MENA, on how Gaza buries the myth that everyone eventually and inevitably comes to stand against the evil of their time.

No crime was too heinous for Assad as he did whatever it took to retain power. Few governments worldwide have been as ruthless. The catalogue of his atrocities quickly transcends the toolbox of a run-of-the-mill dictator, as detailed here:

Read @crisisgroup's Q&A on events in Israel-Palestine. It's often asked if Israel can fight a 2-front war. Now it has shown it cannot maintain a 3-front calm. That's one explanation for the colossal intelligence/security failure. A new October war.

Because of all the recent changes on here, OSINT researchers now have to spend their time debunking years-old content rather than verifying and sharing real footage from the conflict.

[David Gilbert @daithaigilbert]

"For many reasons, this is the hardest time I’ve ever had covering a crisis on here,” @IntelCrab tells me, pointing out that even for him, an OSINT expert, finding primary sources on Twitter is now really hard

Remind me why I'm still here if folk like Matt Navarra are leaving.

[Matt Navarra @MattNavarra]

Enough is enough

It’s a sad day for me tbh 🥲

Twitter made me (minor) famous amongst social media geeks. I’m so thankful ❤️

It has been my fav social network for 15 yrs

And has given me so many opportunities

I’m going to miss it

But I can’t be part of what Elon is creating

As @CrisisGroup's head of MENA, I have a pretty good understanding of what we publish, how we conduct research and how our findings are received, including on the Iran file.

This @nytopinion piece by Bret Stephens is shamefully inaccurate: 1/

🧵Twitter's paid API access limits real-time data availability, hindering vital research and analysis. A challenge in conflict-prone regions where accurate information is crucial as we know at @CrisisGroup

Let's see why 🧵

At today's #AIAct event, @EU_Commission's Killian Gross mentions 8% of enterprises in Europe use AI. This is EU companies with >10 people employed.

Bye bye EU TikTok

[Luca Bertuzzi @BertuzLuca]

🚨SCOOP: The European Commission is banning TikTok from corporate devices and personal devices using corporate apps. EU officials are told to disinstall the social media ASAP and no later than by 15 March to protect data and prevent cyber threats.
