RT @yarotrof: It’s amazing how all of Russia’s pundit class is spending the night watching Turkish election results, rooting for Erdogan, the man who supplied Ukraine with Bayraktars. They haven’t rooted for anyone like that since Trump in 2020.

Slapdash attempt to hack rocket sirens may be cause for serious alarm about Iran
Boasts by 'Sudanese' hackers may be farfetched, but their goal of keeping civilians from shelter shows the deadly aims of Iranian cyber warfare, possibly backed by Russian know-how

Why Imran’s comeback would be a triumph for democracy and a disaster for Pakistan
Imran’s popularity has risen to a level not seen in Pakistan before. But all nations, especially democracies, need institutions that can stand up to majoritarianism of any kind.

I can confirm that a wanted terrorist crossed our open border in the San Diego region just days ago — even if the Biden Administration won’t.

Instead of stepping back from the brink, is the Pakistani establishment going to ratchet up the drama? Rumor has it that they intend to arrest Imran Khan's wife, Bushra Begum. And trot out an obscure sedition law to detain Imran Khan and keep him in prison.…

RT @YousufNazar: Pakistan faces a systemic collapse. Politicians can sit down and agree on a way out. But it seems impossible mainly because Imran thinks he is the only one who is right and claims the high moral ground. Hence, martial law might come back like it did in Egypt. https://t.co/vhZgMUuRDF
