Today, as the United States completes its military withdrawal from Iraq, Kata’ib Hezbollah is celebrating a “victory” over America - parading its drones down a red carpet.
There is something deeply revealing about that image.
These militias were supposed to surrender their weapons and come under state control as the U.S. left Iraq!
Instead, one of Iran’s most powerful Iraqi proxies is celebrating the American departure while publicly displaying the very military capability it was supposed to give up.
And remember: the United States is currently at war with Iran!
Whatever one thinks about the U.S. presence in Iraq, this image says a lot about the unfinished business of establishing the Iraqi state’s monopoly on weapons and armed force.
Pakistan Ministry of Information confirmed that the last night explosions heard in the Kunar and Helmand ares of Afghanistan were due to Pakistani airstrikes on the terrorist hideouts.
A J-10CE mock-up is on display at ADEX with clear Azerbaijan Air Force markings and the number 27-001.
Azerbaijan seems to be following the Pakistan Air Force’s footsteps, first the Super Mushak, then the JF-17, and now the J-10CE. 🇦🇿🇵🇰🇨🇳
It’s a fact that Saudis, Qataris, Turks, Pakistanis spent enormous efforts to halt January attack on Iran, they succeeded, they weren’t able to halt the second one but they tried hard.
However if you don’t call them Zionist then you are a Zionist. Geopolitical takfirism
For me the simplest definition of freedom is the that when all tiny and big things that scares you all the time, won't scare you anymore then you are a free man.
The point to note here is that the famous Tajik resistance leader Ahmad Shah Massoud of Pajshir was eliminated in a bomb blast just two and a half weeks before the arrival of the mentioned CIA team in Panjshir Valley.
The seven-man CIA team, code-named JAWBREAKER, landed in the Panjshir Valley on Sept. 26, 2001, just 15 days after the 9/11 attacks, carrying millions of dollars in cash intended to help enlist and equip Afghan allies. https://t.co/ZlwuggUAFx
I still remember the days when Abrar would talk about becoming the No. 1 bowler in the world, long before he was anywhere near it.
Today, he is officially the No. 1 T20I bowler in the world. 🇵🇰
I have seen the hard work, the hunger and the belief behind this journey. He never stopped wanting more, never stopped working.
So proud of you, Abrar. You dreamed it, worked for it, and earned it. Alhamdulillah. ❤️🇵🇰
The theory of J-35 being the copy of F-35 doesn't make sense anymore, If J-35 is made from the blueprints of F-35 then why would China try to acquire the same technology again?
The Chinese government has taken possession of potentially sensitive F-35 stealth aircraft parts that were inexplicably diverted to Hong Kong while being sent to the US from Australia, people briefed on the incident said https://t.co/2F9kkWiOf5
I have seen academic excellence and academic downfall, I also have witnessed social excellence and social downfall, I will prefer moral excellence over both of them.
