I am pleased to share the news of my book deal with University of Toronto Press (Aevo) #TNR #FI #Espionage #CSIS

@EvanDyerCBC @KateMalloy379 And its bye bye to IAEA inspections which kept their program in check.

Iran's nuclear constraints were more diplomatic than technical. Then the bombs started dropping. Nuclear scientists say risk of country building a bomb has only grown. cbc.ca/news/politics/…

@BhalaniAnant That is a ridiculous question.

@1DanStanton Also, will you even condemn the Kanishka bombing which was done by Khalistani terrorists as it killed 300+ Canadians. Or is your reporting biased towards one side only?

« Foreign states continue to harass and intimidate Canadians, RCMP says. » globalnews.ca/news/11753136/…

@Bit111111 It may seem that way but prosecution is only one tool.

@1DanStanton Sigh. It doesn't seem like reporting this stuff to authorities goes very far.

@AratusofSicyon @ddk_nyc @Winpac89 Yes, there was a ‘take a number and wait your turn’ aspect to these approaches.

@1DanStanton @ddk_nyc @Winpac89 My read is that Chalker probably pitched scientists that CIA expected would be taken "off the board" in any case. IRI clearly had no ability to protect them, and if a CIA officer could confidently pitch them Mossad presumably wasn't far behind. MI5s WW2 recruitments were similar.

This ex-spy helped stop Iran from building a nuclear weapon. And this article was among the most intense that I have ever reported: newyorker.com/magazine/2026/…

@harrisonlowman @TheHubCanada Great interview Harrison. I enjoyed reading Scott Anderson’s book. And his recent one on Iran too.

For @TheHubCanada, I speak to veteran war correspondent Scott Anderson about his book "Lawrence in Arabia: War, Deceit, Imperial Folly and the Making of the Modern Middle East". Anderson explores what he calls a five-foot-four "masochist" and possibly autistic T.E. Lawrence's transformation from British intelligence officer to a rebel fighting mercilessly for Arab independence, his pioneering guerrilla warfare tactics in the desolate desert, and his ultimate betrayal through the secret Sykes-Picot Agreement. The interview examines Lawrence's conflicted loyalties, his rejection of British imperialism, and how the post-WWI partition of the Middle East planted seeds of war that continue to be felt today.

@parody95710 @FBI No worries. I ignore them.

@1DanStanton hi dan , defamation? i know who this id belongs too, i am sure the @FBI could help too.

PM urged to clarify whether he believes India still carrying out interference in Canada #cdnpoli #india theglobeandmail.com/politics/artic…

@sukhdhaliwal toronto.redfm.ca/csis-urges-vig…

I firmly denounce remarks by a government official downplaying India’s transnational repression. They contradict assessments from the NSIA, the RCMP, and CSIS. This matter must be addressed, and the individual’s conduct and suitability for their role must be reviewed.

CSIS acting to prevent possible Iranian proxy attacks on U.S. targets in Canada, former spies say theglobeandmail.com/politics/artic…

The Department of Justice secured a guilty plea from Nikhil Gupta for a murder-for-hire plot targeting an American citizen on U.S. soil—directed by Indian government official Vikash Yadav. The DOJ is seeking Yadav's extradition, but he remains at large in India. Will @SuhagAShukla and her team @HinduAmerican join our community for calling on India to extradite Vikash Yadav to face justice in a U.S. court?

@dr_rita39 Yes I am. Good to hear from you.

@1DanStanton We meet again. 😁 Lost my other account somewhere. Shadowbanned on this. Nothing new Hope you're well Dan
