I can tell you Israel's response already: "UN is an antisemitic organization". Radicalization of any population leads to ruin; any population and its public intellectuals who let themselves get radicalized by leaving aside nuance and facts, and start believing their own stories dogmatically...

Social media has become such a thorn in the side of Western media hegemony: we're gonna see them move to restrict "reach" on social media websites for "undesirable" actors immediately in the coming months.

No thanks; we will wait until the Arab brethren take the first step with their trillions of dollars of free oil money; they don't need to fight, just boycott.

You know what is never a conversation? One of the crucial factors which can help us achieve this difficult goal is a group of elite analysts in both Academia and state apparatus, esp. in the diplomatic bureaucratic structure, who know Hindi, Bengali, Tamil, know Indian culture, have a good...

Yeah doesn't seem like that was true.

According to Lebanese sources, apparently Qaani, the head of the Quds Force of IRGC, has given the green light to Hizbullah to open another front, and Nasrallah is about to announce it.

The level of discourse in the country is Side R- "this is the only thing that matters in the world, we should sacrifice everything for this; send our troops to Gaza". Side S- "no, Palestinians are enemy of Turks and traitors; to hell with them".

A prime example of how ignorance about basic facts (the trajectory of Dawa party in the years of exile) can lead a government to squander opportunities for their country. https://www.lawfaremedia.org/article/how-saudi-arabia-pushed-iraq-arms-iran

On another front, about 3% of Biden's vote came from Muslim Americans. He has lost most of that according to polls. He may not be able to parry a primary as the democrat establishment hoped.

It looks good on the surface I agree, until you look at Iran domestically and realize that the situation with its proxies is absolutely not sustainable and the whole network is going to collapse in a decade or two. Partially because of the amount of resources they have to spend on their proxies...

Saw a conversation with Abdallah Bou Habib (Lebanon's caretaker Foreign Minister) on live tv, stating that in a meeting with Abdollahian, Iran's foreign minister, Abdollahian claimed that Hamas can withstand Israeli assault for months, so there are no plans for Hizbullah or Iranian side to open...

It's not imperialism really; we're not going there and taking their stuff or exploiting them. It's just deals about infrastructure development, having tariff deals, etc. China is going to outbid us in any mining endeavour that we might throw our hands in, but you should try at least. It's just...

Literally how the Western media works:

Everybody is meeting with Taliban; Austrians, Chinese, Japanese. They have a lot of rare earth material resources, and Afghanistan is an untapped market. And due to our Islamist admin, we should have a lot of leeway and advantage over many others in securing deals. Statesmanship is not about...

Discussing three reports posted below; pointing out the Iraq Anbar Plan was a year ago, and the two reports by Misgav Institute Report and Israeli intelligence being only two-weeks old endeavors as less than credible. Israel-Palestine war: Has Biden lost control of Netanyahu...

The juicy fruits of Hamas' attack.

There's nothing wrong with that. Problem is the chances of doing that is much diminished when they already see you as a staunch enemy and as a result you have minimal diplomatic access to Israel, Gaza and the West Bank. It's much easier to manipulate and plan when you seem friendly.

I don't think Al-Jazeera comes out of this conflict unscathed. "They" will want to see its influence diminished for sure.

Following Arab media and social media personalities, today's Istanbul rally is getting quite a muted reaction from them, many pointing out Turkey's economic relations with Israel instead. The rise of Arab nationalism among the youth is palpable.
