Huge news! For 3 years @SohanDsouza & I have investigated a covert paid ad campaign pushing anti-Muslim, anti-migrant & anti-Qatar hate speech across Europe, Lebanon & the US. Today we publish Manufacturing the “Great Replacement”: 533M recorded exposures in 30 countries. 1/25

Furthermore, the operators messed up, and left their metadata in the videos they uploaded to a telegram channel. This included details like MacOS usernames. Most of the names were Hebrew, and the thousands of video edits pointed to an Israeli working week, 20/25

Hi, I'm free. Beat up but fine. Police stole my phone. Settlers punched me in the face several times, likely broke @AdeleShoko's wrist and gave @the_andrey_x a concussion. They threatened to shoot us with an assault rifle over and over. Will tell the full story later, but for now, I just want to be clear about what happened. We witnessed two settlers locking a military gate in Umm al-Khair, blocking the only way to more than twenty Palestinian communities: trapping families inside, preventing students from reaching school and workers from their jobs, blocking delivery of food and access to ambulances, etc. It's a crime that the military has this ability at all--but last night, we discovered that random settler terrorists also have the key. We confronted them and began asking questions on camera, and they nearly murdered us for it. When the police finally arrived, they arrested Andrey and me and charged us with assault. The gate is still locked.

It’s very strange—two days ago, I ended my subscription to X. Since then, I’ve posted a couple of typical math problems, and they’ve gained tremendous reach. It’s odd, isn’t it? Could the algorithm be doing this to persuade me to subscribe again?

I propose the government launch a new scheme called the Bharat Army Quality Works Amendment Scheme (BAQWAS). Under BAQWAS, the government should take over all golf courses (or ,"environmental park and training areas") of the armed forces. Then they should build Theaters on them, where people can go and watch films and plays. With this we can achieve Theaterization of the Armed Forces. There is no problem that cannot be solved by BAQWAS.

Full-blown Hate speech by Israeli PM
הליכוד: הבחירות במדינת ישראל נגנבו על ידי מפלגות ערביות שתומכות בטרור ובחיסול המדינה היהודית באמצעות עבירות פליליות חמורות של שוחד, איומים, אלימות, זיופים ושימוש בתוכנות אסורות להמרצת מצביעים. מפלגת הליכוד מעבירה למשטרה, לשב״כ ולוועדת הבחירות מאות עדויות וראיות על גניבת בחירות בקלפיות ערביות רבות- אלפי מעטפות עם כסף מזומן ופתקי רע״ם, איומים ואלימות כלפי חברי הקלפי, ריבוי מצביעים מאחורי הפרגוד, הצבעות בזהות כפולה, פערים בין מספר המעטפות למספר המצביעים, שימוש בתוכנות המרצה אסורות ועוד. אנו דורשים מהמשטרה ומהשב״כ חקירה יסודית בגין גניבת הבחירות על ידי המפלגות הערביות ומיצוי הדין עם העבריינים. אנו דורשים מוועדת הבחירות התייחסות מיידית לחקירת העבירות הפליליות הללו שפגעו באופן קיצוני בטוהר הבחירות בישראל ובתוצאות הבחירות. זו פגיעה חמורה בדמוקרטיה הישראלית ובזכות הבחירה של אזרחי ישראל. גופי האכיפה מוכרחים לפעול ביד קשה ובאופן מיידי.

This photo was taken 26 years ago today, 14-year-old Faris Odeh throwing a stone at an Israeli tank in Gaza. Ten days later, he was shot in the neck by an Israeli soldier and left to bleed to death.

After a massive increase in power sector entities’ expenditure and all the reforms and efforts being claimed by the Ministry of Power, the combined financial impact of loss inefficiency and under-recovery is still Rs. 326 billion, almost the same level as FY 2022-23. Rs 2711 billion have been wasted in last 10 years..... Meanwhile, significantly more solar has been installed in last 3 years which also helped in reducing losses , including in high-theft areas, and load-shedding in high-loss areas has become much more severe. So where are the efficiency gains? Where is the money being spent, and what measurable improvement has it delivered? Until the Ministry provides year-wise expenditure, units sold, physical losses and recovery data, these claims of a turnaround are simply not convincing. Billions spent, extraordinary efforts claimed, but where is the structural improvement?

Anyone who wishes to see how FBR 'facilitates' SMEs should try to obtain a Sales Tax registration for an AOP particularly if it has anything to do with manufacturing. Just try & you'd be pulling your hair out in frustration within a few weeks.
Pakistan needs to reduce the regulatory burden on SMEs, not increase it. SECP, FBR and other government agencies should facilitate businesses rather than impose ever-growing compliance requirements. In the US, private companies are generally not required to undergo annual statutory audits. Why must Pakistan burden its private companies with costly audits, filings and procedural requirements? The government's role should be to enable enterprise, not obstruct it. @DrIkramulHaq @SECPakistan @FBRSpokesperson @haider_mehtab @81ShahbazRana @KhaleeqKiani @nadeemhaque @SenatorSaleem brecorder.com/news/40446244

An American journalist was beaten by settler terrorists in the occupied West Bank. Israeli forces arrested HIM. Where is the outrage or coverage? This isn’t newsworthy?

Got tired of hearing "Judeo-Christian" heritage/values all the damned time. It was a mantra for all seasons. But now? Yeah, we can see the heritage & values alright. It was ever this way.
Proud Israeli posing in front of a destroyed church. Christian Zionism is a joke

These really are cave dwellers.
Taliban regime in a fresh verdict banned corneal transplant for restoration of Eye Sight in Afghanistan. The decision is taken as per Taliban's interpretation of Islam and Shariah; believing that transplant treatment is UnIslamic.

🔻Almost a year ago I signed a settlement agreement to leave Radboud University in the Netherlands, following ten months in which they harassed me in relation to my speech against the genocide of the Palestinian people. I said I would donate the settlement to causes that further Palestinian liberation. I have now received the money and done so, and want to share the causes in the hope that others donate as well. I gave over half to both The Sameer Project in Gaza (thesameerproject.org/), and Tanseqeye Shaabeye (The Popular Committee) in Lebanon (instagram.com/tanseqeye_shaa…), two on the ground initiatives, run by Palestinians and Lebanese people who refuse to disconnect providing material relief to displaced families from the political project of liberation from Zionism. I donated part to @MomodouTaal and @tjAmandla two wonderful black scholars who are being punished by Cornell University for escaping the US to prevent being kidnapped by ICE over their Palestine activism (chuffed.org/project/200834-s…). Finally, I donated part to activist communities in the Netherlands that are working hard to end Dutch complicity in the Zionist project. I'd like to thank Radboud University for funding these important initiatives. I hope Radboud and all universities do so, so much more to end their complicity with Zionism.
Announcement: following months of attempted repression of speech in relation to Palestine, I have agreed a settlement to leave Radboud University, and will take up a position at a new institution. See my full statement here.

Pre-order now. This #book goes beyond political history to explore the rich tapestry of Islamic rule in India. It offers a comprehensive examination of civilizational development, flourishing scholarship, educational expansion, and material prosperity during Muslim rule in India

Exactly that's why Iran was breeding "Kulbhushan Jadhav" on its soil to cement "Pak-Iran relations", Kulbhushan was a serving Indian Naval Officer being attached with RAW responsible for conducting terror activities inside Pakistan. Giving Chabahar Port to India was another effort to deepen "Pak-Iran relations", "did marandi & co" approved the January 2024 missile strikes into Pakistan? However Pakistan returned the favor so that Pakistan-Iran relations remain strong & brotherly.
Any account masquerading as a 'patriot' 'nationalist' account without an authentic display picture or a proper name throwing dirt on Iran and running a smear campaign are actually hell bent on destroying Pak-Iran relations. Most are either US, Israel or Indian linked or takfiri. All are enemies of Pak-Iran relations.
