India's External Affairs Minister, at an official all-party meeting, used the word 'dalal' to describe Pakistan's diplomatic role.
Not in a chai dhaba. Not on a WhatsApp forward. At a formal government briefing.
This is what a decade of BJP rule has produced: a Foreign Minister who reaches for street-level abuse when confronted with the reality that Pakistan is hosting the most consequential peace talks on the planet and India has no seat, no role, and nothing to offer except name-calling.
The dignity of Indian diplomacy died somewhere between this briefing and that word.

India cannot act as a “dalal nation” in global geopolitics, External Affairs Minister @DrSJaishankar said at the all-party meet on West Asia crisis on Wednesday. The minister's remarks came when Opposition raised concerns over Pakistan mediating talks between United States and Iran amid the ongoing conflict, sources told India Today. indiatoday.in/india/story/we…

Vance suggests Iran could have used nuclear suicide vests: “You talk about people who walk into a crowded supermarket and have a vest on, and they blow up the vest and a couple of people get killed, and that's a terrible tragedy. What happens when what's on the vest is not something that can kill a couple of people, but can kill many, many tens of thousands of people?”

Endless propaganda has convinced Americans that bombs dropping in the Middle East is “normal.” As if those families don’t have jobs, school, hopes & dreams. As if every life lost isn’t someone’s entire universe.
Geographical luck. That’s the only difference between you & them.

South Korea is just standing there half naked after the US took some of its defence systems and somehow North Korea is not bombing them.
It’s almost as if it was just an American protection racket all along.

Parents of the 168 schoolchildren killed in Minab are struggling to process the scale of the loss, returning each night to keep vigil at their children’s graves.
Drop Site correspondent Mahmoud Aslan reported that families arrive carrying rugs and cushions, food, water, and candles, placing them beside the small, freshly dug graves. They clean the tombstones, tend the surrounding earth, and settle in for the night—keeping a quiet vigil until dawn.

The “goal” of the Iran war is now reportedly to open the Strait of Hormuz, which was open before the war began

That is a typical Morton's fork
If Iran cannot fight back, that proves that attacking it was a great idea
If Iran can fight back, that proves that attacking it was necessary & inevitable -> also a great idea

"Iran's ability to fight a war is proof that we had to fight the war" is a take for the ages. Real genius level stuff.

When the NYT took 5 days to attribute the Minab school bombing to the US its reason for taking so long was they couldn’t attribute responsibility until they “collected evidence” yet, despite Iranian denials, they automatically know who fired the missile at Diego Garcia. Weird!

@deedydas awesome. can you convert this to a chess trainer app. basically it takes my games - figures out flaws, blunders, moves to keep playing - and keeps learning over time and tells new moves similar in my style, moves not to play etc
essentially - an autolearning loop for the human

@RasmusJarlov @DiackChris 1. Can you ask the Denmark sovereign funds to divest from
American & Israeli defense and weapon companies
2. Can you stop all trade with USA and Israel
3. Can you ask your neighbouring countries to do the same

I have a genius idea: Dont bomb Iran. That will keep the straight of Hormuz open. It was open and no ships were attacked by Iran before that started.
