𝗧𝗥𝗨𝗧𝗛 "امریکہ وزیر دفاع کی بریفنگ سُننا میرے لیے انتہائی شرمناک ہوتا ہے وہ ایسے بولتا ہے جیسے Fox نیوز کا رپورٹر ہو اور ویکنڈ پر ڈرنک ہو" امریکی اینکر کا اپنے ہی وزیر دفاع پر شدید تنقید

A true display of American strength would be NOT taking the escalation bait. Don’t double down on failure by committing ground troops & increasing air strikes. Show the world we can still lead by restraining Israel & negotiating w/Iran to open Hormuz, restoring order is power.

Marco Rubio 2 days ago: “Imagine if Iran funded the well-being of its people, rather than its military” Trump today: “We can’t fund daycare or Medicaid, we need more money for our military” Sometimes the jokes write themselves.

In 2026 this is what terrorists look like.

Just as I was addressing the American people, the head of our Strategic Council on Foreign Policy was targeted in an assassination attempt, leading to the martyrdom of his innocent wife. Let the world judge; which side engages in dialogue and negotiation, and which in terrorism?

@egypt4egyptians I came here 20 years back - when I landed it didn’t feel like a modern metropolis, now who ever comes to visit me here, gets surprised how livable this city is. And I live between dubai, Melbourne, Cairo and Italy/spain. I genuinely in a position to compare. Long live Egyptians

They are STILL doing this shitty propaganda 😹

@MarioNawfal @TabzLIVE No one has old fashion manpad ,. These are sitting ducks

@_A_khalifa While I’m absolutely against war on Iran and also against regional countries decision to indirectly support the war by hosting American presence - this just can’t be denied but I’ll never ever sympathise or be happy with any attack on any GCC countries.

Anyone living and working in the UAE Pakistani, Indian, Arab, Muslim, or whoever who celebrates Iranian Regime aggression against this country deserves to have their visa revoked. No exceptions ..

@TurgayEvren1 Pakistani are pro injustice against Muslim countries, Iran right now is unjustly attacked by imperial order.

In #Pakistan, there are strong pro-Iran sentiments—sometimes even more visible than inside #Iran. Is my observation right?...

US Army Chief of Staff General Randy George has been forced to resign with immediate effect, raising concerns over growing politicisation of the military, as President Trump publicises a strike on a civilian bridge in Iran that critics say could amount to a war crime.

@egypt4egyptians More importantly local manufacturing in Egypt Today is of equipment and platforms for dated war doctrine - while the work is initiated in some areas but to build industrial capacity to scale modern and exotic weapons, Egypt will take decades if not 8-10 years.

@Sham1069204 i wouldve agreed with everything u said in 2014 its 2026 & egypts military is literally another beat & actually has advanced weaponry this time around. Just check the latest deals, EDEX 2025 & more intel abt egyptian military in the market and how we are now literally selling

I’m convinced foreigners who hate Egypt & wants nothing good to come its way, also automatically hate Sisi without knowing anything about him. A pretty expected coincidence.

@egypt4egyptians It takes decade to acquire, adopt, train and evolve military -they just started acquiring platforms and still lacks in long standoff delivery systems and integrations. Whilst, I wish opposite was true but Egyptian military today isn’t ready to wage a successful military campaign

@egypt4egyptians Egyptian militarily today has weapon systems but not the lethality .. has military but no modern fighting doctrine. You can choose not to start the war but you can’t always avoid one. Egypt as of today isn’t ready at many levels to fight.

@egypt4egyptians Egypt is bigger, meaningful and constant factor than Sisi - Sisi has done excellent by not getting involved in war of choice & focus on its 100 million people. But war of survival can come anytime and fact is that 30 years of American partnership has defanged egyptian militarily

@Idris0x00 @egypt4egyptians Right .. Amad like many Muslims ( I know Egyptians,Pakistani and to some extend GCC societies I know very intimately ) have very superficial understanding of what progressing cohesively means and how diversity and commonalities really work especially in new age we are moving

Arab isn’t a vague identity. You were just told what being “Arab” is and because like everything about us Arabs - we like to take the easy/spoonfed/vending machine way than to try and figure it out for ourselves. “Fuck all in common” - sure but you in Cairo, and your brother in the s3eed also have mostly fuck all in common in terms of your day to day life. That being said, there are more fundamental things that we have in common than just language - e.g. moral values, hospitality, etc… I don’t know how much you’ve travelled but I can tell you that within America, the individual states have little in common (eg NYC & Alabama). The same applies to the provinces in China. They have just enough in common to be cohesive. The differences/diversity also work in their favor. Identity is manufactured & dynamic- it is not a static fact. “Arab” can be diverse & the diversity actually gives it a power & depth that few others would have. You want to talk about history - we have a perfect example with the Ottomans - they thrived for centuries and mostly got along across ethnicity/religion/etc. We can also look to the present - the GCC which is arguably the most successful part of our region proves that there’s a template/format/system where we can all live together cohesively. We should scale that. To those saying “someone in Sudan won’t want to be governed by an Egyptian” - sure but who said that would be the only system? There are different formats (e.g federal and state level) of governance but like I mentioned, we like to be spoonfed. Finally, this doesn’t need to happen in one go - and most likely it would fail (like Nassers attempt) if we tried. It can be done gradually and in phases. You’re also right in saying the GCC shouldn’t be made to feel like they’re bankrolling this so they can join when the time is right (e.g when oil is no longer the primary energy source). I have this conviction because in the era we’re moving into with a multipolar world dominated by AI & Space capabilities - the only hope for our region to catch up (let alone compete) is through being united & cohesive. Otherwise you can try to explain to your great grandkids that they’re being deployed to some random asteroid to mine minerals for the next gen of Zionists because you liked to have your Couscous the Moroccan way.

My dream since arab unity is impossible Maghreb Republic Egypt Republic Arabian Republic Levant Republic Turkish Republic Mesopotamian Republic Persian Republic Durrani Republic Turkistan Republic 9 Muslim Nations allied together We can form an even stronger alliance than NATO

@Sarcaztick Absolutely no sane people in Egypt like Morsi - perhaps less than 10% of population, he was deeply fundamentalist and looked at Egypt as steeping stone for broader theological goals even at expense of Egypt. IK was much dynamic and more focussed on social and economical progress

Is Imran Khan like Mohamed Morsi, and is Asim Munir like Abdel Fattah el-Sisi?

@faizansiddiqi @sohailmunir @zburki National AI infra is single most critical capex investment to sustain sovereignty of modern nation states. Nations that solve physics problems at scale with AI will attain unassailable domination. This Differential at nation level with create new era of imperialism.

@Sham1069204 @sohailmunir @zburki It's a process. National infra takes time to hit scale. The thing is that as you point out, just tech resources will become a commodity so we have to look at a different solution. Also agree with you on the sovereign infra piece, more on that here: bit.ly/PKCLOUDSoverei…

The freelancer model won’t get Pakistan to $30 billion in IT export revenue targets. The real opportunity (and the real challenge) lies in the missing Rs5.6 trillion. My piece for The News today. thenews.pk/print/1407248-… @sohailmunir @zburki

@idontpaytaxes_ Exactly - this shows what is fundamentally wrong with political Islam or atleast in the way it is being perceived as utopian model
