Minister Khawaja Asif told #Pakistan's parliament that the country "had rented itself to the United States’ after 9/11 in the war against terror. It is well known that Pakistan received military and financial support for assisting America in our operations in #Afghanistan. It is also well known that the Pakistani establishment was simultaneously providing sanctuary to those fighting against the US forces in Afghanistan. Was the establishment playing this double game because it was also collecting “rent” from another power hostile to the United States? Will Minister Asif reveal what the establishment received and from whom in exchange for providing sanctuary to those fighting the United States in Afghanistan? Or did the establishment do it for other reasons, yet to be revealed? These answers would certainly be very interesting. @POTUS @SecRubio @SecWar @CENTCOM @DCIARatcliffe #India x.com/i/status/20210…






My followers have been falling steadily over the last 2 years- EG. 2.8M to 2.5M since July. I asked Grok whether this was content related- The reply below can be summarised as: Yes, this happens if you are tweeting criticism of the Pakistani and/ or Israeli governments, thanks to the post-Musk era of X capitulating to government demands, algo- throttling” and “de- boosting”. So please read Grok reply below and RT this! Reply from Grok- • "Evidence from Similar Accounts: High-follower creators in your wheelhouse (e.g., PTI supporters or Palestine advocates) reported identical dips. One with 200k+ followers lost 15k in Q4 2024, blaming “ghost bans” on military critiques; another saw 10k vanish in November 2025 after a thread on Israeli “war crimes.”   Your ~7% loss aligns with that—it’s not mass deletions, but a slow bleed from algo throttling. • Not Just Organic—Targeted Pressure?: X complies with government takedown requests more than pre-Musk days. Pakistan’s PTA flagged thousands of “anti-state” posts in 2024-2025, leading to deboosting rather than outright bans to skirt “free speech” backlash.  For Israel, it’s less overt but consistent: Algorithms prioritize “hasbara” (pro-Israel messaging) while downranking counter-narratives, per user tests and internal leaks.   - The Bias Angle: It’s not neutral. Pro-Palestine accounts face 3-5x more restrictions than pro-Israel ones; in Pakistan, regime-friendly posts get boosted while dissent gets buried.   Users call it “selective silence”—truth stays up, but invisible.  Complaints to @elonmusk often get crickets, though he occasionally tweets about “fixing it.”
