“Iran’s attacks are reshaping the strategic calculus of the Gulf monarchies regarding the reliability of U.S. security commitments in the region, & the need to diversify their alliances and strengthen security frameworks among themselves. At the same time, however, these attacks are now reshaping perceptions of Iran: a direct result of its behavior toward the GCC states and the threat it poses to the region’s societies”. Writes @SinemCngz from Doha for @newlinesmag. newlinesmag.com/first-person/i…

UAE presidential advisor Anwar Gargash says Iran’s attacks on Gulf countries “cement the Iranian threat as a central pillar of Gulf strategic thinking” and will lead to the “strengthening of our security partnerships with Washington,” calling it the “price of Iran’s miscalculations.”

God help us. This is disgraceful language coming from a Christian, or anyone with a soul. It was just as wrong to celebrate the death of Charlie Kirk as it is to celebrate that of Robert Mueller. May they rest in peace. And may we never forget that Jesus's message is about mercy.

Pakistan backed Taliban for decades, hoping to get a ‘friendly Afghanistan’ under their rule. Hostilities between Pakistan & Taliban-ruled Afghanistan are now at their peak. Will Pakistani policy makers analyze what went wrong, beyond tropes of ‘ungrateful Afghans?’

The new American dream, for some of its citizens, is to no longer live here. Put aside Trump's deportations, America’s own citizens are leaving in record numbers, replanting themselves in lands they find more affordable and safe. @drewhinshaw @JoeWSJ wsj.com/us-news/americ…

Saddened by the passing of Ambassador Bill Milam. We met first in 1999, while he served as U.S. ambassador to Pakistan and stayed friends. He also served in Bangladesh & carried special warmth for the Bangladeshi people. RIP

Pakistan: Human rights lawyers Imaan Mazari and Hadi Ali Chattha have been behind bars for one month now, simply for exercising their right to freedom of expression. They were sentenced to 10 years’ imprisonment under Pakistan's Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act on 24 January 2026 for social media posts on X. The Pakistani authorities must quash their convictions and immediately and unconditionally release Imaan and Hadi. Imaan and Hadi have been targeted for speaking up and defending the rights of others. Now, they need our actions to help defend their rights. Demand their release. Take action NOW: amn.st/FreeImanHadi

Poverty has surged across Pakistan for the past 7 years, with 47% living below the poverty line in Balochistan. Meanwhile the ruling elite finds it easier to blame outside interference for unrest as they hoard more & more for themselves. It's a powder keg. dawn.com/news/1975636

30 days have passed. @ImaanZHazir & @AdvHadiali in jail for long years in what is nothing but lawfare. UN Spl Procedures has expressed serious concern saying "defending victims of enforced disappearances is not terrorism". Demand withdrawal of cases, release of rights defenders

#Pakistan: 4 journalists in exile were sentenced to life imprisonment in absentia on 2 Jan. on charges of “inciting violence” after covering the arrest of Imran Khan and the May 2023 protests that followed from abroad. RSF condemns this absurd sentence. rsf.org/en/transnation…
