A reported dialogue between Ali Larijani and Ayatollah Ali Khamenei before his martyrdom: Ali Larijani, Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, came to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei carrying a cold report — but his heart was not cold. After a long silence he said: “My leader… this time the threat is not just a passing message of pressure. A decision has been made. The enemy wants to kill you, even if the sky burns with missiles. We have prepared a fortified location, a place carefully secured and hidden from all eyes — a place bombs cannot easily reach and aircraft cannot strike. It is not hiding, my leader… but a temporary disappearance until the storm passes.” The Leader remained silent for a moment, then slowly stood up — as if history itself had risen with him. He approached and asked calmly: “And when you came to me… what answer did you expect?” Larijani replied after hesitation: “I expected you would refuse. But my leader, the nation needs you, and the battle needs its commander.” The Leader smiled — a smile carrying both sadness and wisdom. “You are right in the calculations of states and the books of security. But let us speak for a moment in a language older than politics. How can I ask a soldier to face death if his commander disappears? How can I tell the people to stand firm… if I am the first to leave the field of danger?” He paused, as if a door to Karbala had opened within his chest. “We are the sons of a man named Hussein ibn Ali — the Imam who knew his fate and still walked toward it as one walks toward God’s promise. He did not disappear because his army was small — for he had a greater army in the heavens.” Larijani replied: “But my leader, history is not one page. We also have a Hidden Imam whose absence taught us that disappearance is sometimes wisdom, not fear.” The Leader sighed and answered: “The difference, Mr. Larijani, is that when the Imam disappeared, he had no army and no nation capable of defending the truth. But we… how can I disappear when I have a nation fighting? How can I vanish while my soldiers stand under fire? When a leader disappears while he is alone, it may be wisdom. But when a whole nation stands behind him, his disappearance may become a heavy question in the conscience of history.” Larijani fell silent, unable to respond. The Leader shook his hand, thanking him for his concern. After Larijani left, he gathered his family and told them about the proposal — a safe place they could go until the war ended. They looked at him as children look at the meaning of dignity and simply said: “We are wherever you are.” And so the man remained where he was — not because he did not know the danger, but because he knew something deeper: Some leaders, when they disappear from death, may also disappear from the memory of their nation.

@ikhwanuddin @DannyAlxndrWard Model bisnis tiap think tank beda. Think Policy beda dng SMERU, beda pula dng Prakarsa dan Celios

@ikhwanuddin @DannyAlxndrWard Tergantung model bisnis think tanknya mas. Sebagian besar dari donor, baik filantropi maupun bilateral/multi lateral. Ada yg via kerja sama dng think tank internasional. Ada yg juga mroyek ke pemerintah dan swasta

@Kimberley_PS08 Badut bukannya pekerjaannya melawak? Nothing is wrong with that

Oalah… ujungnya ke nyoblos pemilu - pilpres. Gak perlu takut. Sebab dia hanya jual mimpi bukan jual gagasan. Yang bayar mahal tentu yang satu frekuensi dan sama kualitas berpikirnya. Orang orang seperti ini orientasinya duit, bukan nasionalisme. Badut yang coba melawak😂

@gitaputrid I am Batman :)

'Nobody else is gonna do it' is a nice sentiment, but currently, the strategy seems to be outsourcing the entire 'avoiding dictatorship' department to the same burnt-out civil society folks. Please clock in; we are tired.
