Restore The Balance

[Akhtar Mengal @sakhtarmengal]

What happened to the female doctor in Quetta yesterday goes against our traditions, our values, and everything Balochistan stands for. Women hold the highest place of respect in our society, and there can be no tolerance for those who try to bring down respected and successful women with backward and patriarchal thinking.Balochistan is a land where women are honoured, valued, and often lead from the front. Any attack on a woman’s dignity, reputation, or achievements is an attack on our collective values. We stand with every woman facing injustice and strongly condemn those who believe they can silence, shame, or target women. There must be zero tolerance for such behaviour. Respect for women is not a choice it is a principle that must be upheld at all times. We stand united with the victims family and demand justice.

Melt down

[Lindsey Graham @LindseyGrahamSC]

The American Embassy is being evacuated in Riyadh because of sustained attacks by Iran against the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

It is my understanding the Kingdom refuses to use their capable military as a part of an effort to end the barbaric and terrorist Iranian regime who has terrorized the region and killed 7 Americans.

Question – why should America do a defense agreement with a country like the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia that is unwilling to join a fight of mutual interest?

Americans are dying and the U.S. is spending billions to dislodge the terrorist Iranian regime that threatens the region. Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia seems to be issuing statements and doing things in the background that are marginally helpful, but unwilling to participate in military operations to end the reign of terror coming out of Iran. Hopefully Gulf Cooperation Council countries will get more involved as this fight is in their backyard. If you are not willing to use your military now, when are you willing to use it?

Hopefully this changes soon. If not, consequences will follow.

OpenAI just signed a disastrous deal for Muslims.

The US government can now monitor private user information at a scale never seen before. Think post-911 surveillance but 1000X bigger.

It's time for Muslims to stop the suhoor fests and start building + supporting:

• AI companies
• Payment & banking rails
• Uncensored social media

@syedjamal_agha I thought this was a serious account

[Mohammed Hijab @mohammed_hijab]

We often, and rightly, condemn Muslim political leaders for their paralysis on Palestine. But the painful truth is that too many of us simply do not care enough to struggle meaningfully against this injustice. In the end, Allah grants communities leaders who mirror their own appetite for sacrifice and their own reluctance to act.

“Indeed, Allah will not change the condition of a people until they change what is within themselves.” (Qur’an 13:11)

Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud:

The illegal aggression of PM Netanyahu in recognising a part of #Somalia’s Northern region is against international law.

Meddling with Somalia’s internal affairs is contrary to established legal and diplomatic rules.

Somalia and its people are one: inseparable by division from a far.

Pakistan’s role in Gaza will be to de-weaponise Hamas and make sure there are no attacks: PMLN Spokesperson Barrister Daniyal Chaudhry tells Wasim Badami

[Drop Site @DropSiteNews]

🟢 Senior Pakistani Official Says Troops Would ‘Disarm Hamas’ in Gaza

As Israel resumed strikes on Gaza, Daniyal Chaudhry, Pakistan’s Parliamentary Secretary for Information and Broadcasting, said on-air that Pakistani troops could join an international “peacekeeping” mission tasked with disarming Hamas and preventing “cross-border terrorism,” alongside countries like Turkey, Malaysia, and Azerbaijan.

Chaudhry is a sitting Member of Parliament and serves as deputy to the Federal Information Minister — a post that often speaks for the government in Parliament and national media, making him part of the government’s official communication chain. He said there is no agreement yet, but Pakistan would be “honored” to help “protect Gaza’s children and civilians,” and “ensure there is no extremism.”

Opposition figures Sher Afzal Marwat and Shaukat Yousafzai (PTI) called for parliamentary debate, warning the real threat to any such force would come from Israel’s aggression, not Hamas.

What’s happening in El-Fashir, Sudan, is as horrific as Gaza. Satellite images by Yale University’s Humanitarian Research Lab show bloodstains visible from space where RSF executed civilians.

If Israel and US-backed proxies are the biggest destabilizers in the Middle East, the UAE plays that role in North and East Africa. The Sheikhdom mirrors Israel’s expansionist mindset, academically called sub-imperialism, seeking regional dominance, economic exploitation, and military influence.

Sudan’s suffering is directly tied to the UAE’s gold and mineral ambitions. The country has become a hub for illicit gold trade. The US Treasury (2022) reported that over 90% of DRC’s gold is smuggled to Uganda and Rwanda before being refined and exported to the UAE.

The Abu Dhabi Economic Vision 2030 lists metals as the third pillar of growth after oil and real estate. Since 2023, Tahnoon bin Zayed’s (MBZ’s brother and UAE’s Intel Chief) International Resources Holding (IRH) has led aggressive expansion:

•Acquired Zambia’s Mopani copper mine ($1.1B)
•Signed iron ore deals in Angola (2024)
•Entered advanced talks for nickel mining in Burundi
•Through Primera Group, sealed a 25-year, $1.9B deal with DRC for tin, tantalum, tungsten, and cobalt — key for batteries, aviation, and defense industries

These ventures are reinforced by UAE-controlled ports such as Maputo, Dakar, Berbera, Bosaso, and Egypt’s Sokhna and Safaga, operated by Dubai Port World and Abu Dhabi Ports Group securing supply lines for mineral exports.

Beyond economics, the UAE actively works to topple democratic governments across the MENA region under the pretext of fighting the Muslim Brotherhood from Libya and Somalia to Ethiopia and Egypt.

The insecure Sheikhdom knows oil won’t sustain it for long. It is racing to become a regional hub for minerals and data infrastructure.

Let’s see how long this overreach takes to provoke rivals like Riyadh and Ankara into action.

The government may want to make an example out of Sami Hamdi, to silence a voice that refuses to flatter power. Instead, they have again made an example of themselves.

UPDATE: The four independent Muslim MPs & Jeremy Corbyn have signed a letter condemning the arrest and detention of journalist Sami Hamdi.

The MPs called on the UK government to ensure Hamdi is safe and returned home to his family as soon as possible.

[ReleaseJameelBehram Movement @BehramFamily]

22 days since my brother Jameel Behram was unlawfully abducted. We are still unaware of his whereabouts, he hasn't not been presented Infront of the court. We are gravely concerned about his safety and demand his immediate release.

The israelis delete Dr Hussam Abu Safia from the releasee list & move to illegally hold him in custody without charge for another six months

Beware of hyper-nationalism

[Wasim @waasim_]

Nationalism is a disease. If things escalate between Pakistan and Afghanistan, no territory will actually change hands but the only guaranteed outcome is a pile of Muslim bodies on both sides of the Durand line.

May Allah ﷻ unite our hearts and keep us all firm on iman
