مجھے حیرت ہے کہ ابھی تک صابر شاکر یا عمران ریاض نے یہ کہانی کیوں نہیں بنائی کہ جب اسرائیل کا زیادہ نقصان ہونا شروع ہوا تو جلدی سے پاکستان ثالثی کروانے آ گیا

@techstarsrk I have entered a few sikh owned restaurants and asked if they serve halal meat? And when they said no, i felt so bad to have bothered them that i ended up eating their cholay bhatoray, amartsari kulcha etc just out of guilt…..this sign would seriously save people like me

Upon 2nd thought, I welcome this move. Whenever we muslims go out to eat, there’s always this headache of finding Halal restaurants. These proud branding of non-halal is actually helping muslims not to go into haram restaurants. This should be implemented all over the world !!

Ranngrez, an Indian non-halal restaurant in Hammersmith, is open for business!! Harman Kapoor and His wife Khush Kapoor are actually walking the talk! London is healing 🩷

Peter Girnus 🦅@gothburz·
I am a diplomatic aide in the Sultanate of Oman's Ministry of Foreign Affairs. My job is logistics. When two countries that cannot speak to each other need to speak to each other, I book the rooms. I prepare the briefing materials. I make sure the water glasses are the right distance apart. You would be surprised how much of diplomacy is water glasses. Too close and it feels informal. Too far and it feels like a tribunal. I have a chart. We had a very good month. Since January, Oman has been mediating indirect talks between the United States and Iran on Iran's nuclear program. The talks were held in Muscat and in Geneva. The Americans would sit in one room. The Iranians would sit in another room. I would walk between them. My Fitbit says I averaged fourteen thousand steps on negotiation days. The hallway between the two rooms at the Royal Opera House conference center is forty-seven meters. I walked it two hundred and twelve times in February. This is good for my cardiovascular health. It was less good for my knees. Both are in the service of peace. By mid-February, we had something. Iran agreed to zero stockpiling of enriched uranium. Not reduced stockpiling. Zero. They agreed to down-blend existing stockpiles to the lowest possible level. They agreed to convert them into irreversible fuel. They agreed to full IAEA verification with potential US inspector access. They agreed, in the Foreign Minister's phrase, to "never, ever" possess nuclear material for a bomb. I have worked in diplomacy for seven years. I have never seen a country agree to this many things this quickly. I made a spreadsheet of the concessions. It had fourteen rows. I color-coded it. Green for confirmed. Yellow for pending. By February 21 the spreadsheet was entirely green. I printed it. It is on my desk in Muscat. It is still green. That phrase took eleven days. "Never, ever." The Iranians initially offered "not seek to." The Americans wanted "will not under any circumstances." We landed on "never, ever" at 2:14 AM on a Tuesday in Muscat. I typed the final version myself. I used Times New Roman because Geneva prefers it. The document was fourteen pages. I was proud of every comma. Here is what they said, in the order they said it. February 24: "We have a once-in-a-generation opportunity." — The Foreign Minister, private briefing to Gulf Cooperation Council ambassadors. I prepared the slide deck. Slide 14 was the implementation timeline. Slide 15 was the signing ceremony logistics. I had reserved the Palais des Nations in Geneva, Room XX. It seats four hundred. We discussed pen brands for the signing. The Iranians preferred Montblanc. The Americans had no preference. I ordered twelve Montblanc Meisterstucks at six hundred and thirty dollars each. They arrive on Tuesday. February 27, 8:30 AM EST: "The deal is within our reach." — The Foreign Minister, CBS Face the Nation. He sat across from Margaret Brennan. He said broad political terms could be agreed "tomorrow" with ninety days for technical implementation in Vienna. He said, and I wrote this line for the briefing card he carried in his breast pocket: "If we just allow diplomacy the space it needs." He praised the American envoys by name. Steve Witkoff. Jared Kushner. He said both had been constructive. I watched from the Four Seasons Georgetown. The minibar had cashews. I ate the cashews. They were nineteen dollars. The most expensive cashew I have ever eaten. But it was a good morning and we were within our reach. February 27, 2:00 PM EST: Meeting with Vice President Vance, Washington. The Foreign Minister presented our progress. Zero stockpiling. Full verification. Irreversible conversion. "Never, ever." The Vice President used the word "encouraging." His aide took notes on an iPad. The aide did not make eye contact for the last nine minutes of the meeting. I noticed this. Noticing things is the only part of my job that is not water glasses. February 27, 4:00 PM EST: "Not happy with the pace." — President Trump, to reporters. Not happy with the pace. We had achieved zero stockpiling. Full IAEA verification. Irreversible fuel conversion. Inspector access. And the phrase "never, ever," which took eleven days and cost me two hundred and twelve trips down a forty-seven-meter hallway. Every American president since Carter has failed to get Iran to agree to this. Forty-five years. Not happy with the pace. February 27, 9:47 PM EST: The Foreign Minister's flight departs Dulles for Muscat. I am in the seat behind him. He is reviewing Slide 14 on his laptop. The implementation timeline. Vienna technical sessions. The signing ceremony. The pens. I fall asleep over the Atlantic. I dream about water glasses. February 28, 6:00 AM GST: I wake up to push notifications. February 28: "The United States has begun major combat operations in Iran." — President Trump. Operation Epic Fury. Coordinated airstrikes. The United States and Israel. Tehran. Isfahan. Qom. Karaj. Kermanshah. Nuclear facilities. IRGC bases. Sites near the Supreme Leader's office. Israel called their half Operation Roaring Lion. Someone in both governments spent time choosing these names. Epic Fury. Roaring Lion. I spent eleven days on "never, ever." They spent it on branding. The President said Iran had "rejected American calls to halt its nuclear weapons production." Rejected. Iran had agreed to zero stockpiling. Iran had agreed to full verification. Iran had agreed to "never, ever." Iran had agreed to everything in a fourteen-page document that I typed in Times New Roman. The President said they rejected it. I do not know which document the President was reading. I know which one I typed. February 28, 18:45 UTC: Iran internet connectivity: four percent. — NetBlocks, confirmed by Cloudflare. Ninety-six percent of a country went dark. You cannot negotiate with a country at four percent connectivity. You cannot negotiate with a country that is being struck. You cannot negotiate. This is not a political opinion. This is a logistics assessment. February 28: The governor of Minab reported forty girls killed at an elementary school. I do not have logistics for that. There is no slide for that. The water glass chart does not cover that. February 28: Lockheed Martin: up. Northrop Grumman: up. RTX: up. Dow futures: down six hundred and twenty-two points. Gold: five thousand two hundred and ninety-six dollars. An analyst at AInvest published a note titled "Iran Strikes: Tactical Plays." The note recommended positions in oil, defense stocks, and gold. The most expensive cashew I have ever eaten was nineteen dollars. The most expensive pen I have ever ordered was six hundred and thirty dollars. The math suggests I have been working in the wrong industry. Defense stocks do not require water glasses. Defense stocks do not require eleven days. Defense stocks require one morning. February 28: Israel closed its airspace and its schools. Iran launched retaliatory missiles toward US bases in the Gulf. The Supreme Leader promised a "crushing response." Israel's defense minister declared a permanent state of emergency. Everyone is using words I recognize in an order I do not. I recognize "permanent." I recognize "emergency." I do not recognize them next to each other. In diplomacy, nothing is permanent and everything is an emergency. In war it is the reverse. February 28: The Foreign Minister has not made a public statement. The briefing card is still in his breast pocket. It still says "within our reach."

Jalila Haider@Advjalila·
I had hoped PTI supporters would raise questions about the obvious security lapses, yet many are instead blaming Basant. That is exactly the kind of narrative Takfirs want to promote. They label everything cultural celebrations, Eid Milad-un-Nabi, Muharram, Christmas, iftar gatherings, children going to school, girls’ education, Basant, Holi, Diwali, even Eid as Kufr. Which day have they not targeted even they have attack mulan fazal ur rahmen convoy in Balochistan , the have attacked sunni eid milad un nabi celebrating, they attacked eid prayer, they attacked markets, they attack ramazan dastarkhwan, they attacked Ashora julos, they attacked churches,they attacked mosques? Rather than unequivocally condemning the terrorists or demanding accountability for security failures, the blame is shifted onto celebrations and ordinary people trying to live their lives. These groups even reject the legitimacy of modern states and democratic politics altogether, calling them “kufr.” They have attacked political rallies, elections, prayers, and communities across sects and backgrounds because their ideology brands everyone outside their ideology as an enemy. Anyone who has worked in anti terrorism courts understands this mindset and its objectives. I wish we could have a serious discussion about root causes and security failures and condemn such violence openly. Too often, however, people hesitate out of fear of backlash, political pressure, or social and financial consequences. Blaming cultural or religious gatherings only reinforces the narrative these Takfirs want, a society that lives in fear and mourning rather than normal humans. What they seek is a silenced, grieving nation, and it is painful to see narratives that unintentionally echo that agenda instead of standing firmly against it. #IslamabadBlast

@Jvnior Why? Is your fast that fragile? Keep your fast to yourself without making others feel guilty about loving a normal life around you. I am a Muslim, i fast, i dont care if people around me eat while i am fasting and neither does a majority of muslims

During Ramadan, Please don’t eat in front of Muslims. Please don’t drink in front of Muslims. Please don’t try to sell us food or water. We will be fasting from sunrise to sundown. I hope you can understand my clear message.

When your child has a friend over, don't you assume it's your responsibility to feed that child? My daughter was told if she wanted KFC with the rest of the family, she needed to pay for her own. WTF

یہ بچا لاہور میں 125 کو بازار میں سرعام کھڑے دیکھ کر حیران ہو رہا ہے اور کہہ رہا ہے کے کراچی میں تو ہم ڈرتے اپنی بائیک صاف نہیں کرتے کے چوری نہ ہو جائے۔😮 اور میں یہ سوچ کر حیران ہو رہا ہوں کے کراچی کا اگر یہ حال ہے تو باقی سندھ میں کیا ہوت ہوگا۔۔؟🤔😮 کیا ایسا ہی ہے۔؟

Indians trolls don’t hate you for wearing dupattas or knowing about the Indus Valley Civ, they hate you for being comfortable in your own skin. Bec the moment they cross a normal Pakistani their stereotypes about us start collapsing and their minds simply can’t register this.

Every time America is on the verge of greatness, we get involved in another foreign war. There would not be bombs falling on the people of Israel if Netanyahu had not dropped bombs on the people of Iran first. Israel is a nuclear armed nation. This is not our fight. Peace is the answer. 🙏
