1. #Idea stage. How?

“How will we make this idea a reality?”
This includes nailing down the pain in the market and articulating how you’re planning to cure that.
2. #Product-Market fit stage. What?

“What is the #market telling us?”
This includes looking at product-market fit indicators and iterating your #solution. If you’ve nailed the pain and know what are leading indicators of #PMF - this stage is actually easier than perceived.

The failed assassination attempt vs #IraqiPM #Kadhimi calls for several observations:
• 1st contextual element: Recent Iraqi elections were clear setback for #Iran (w/out really strengthening the PM’s own constituency; while strengthening #Muqtada_Sadr, a volatile actor).
(1)
(2)
• This has triggered 2 opposite effects:
- need for #Iran & #PMF to reassert control & preeminence on #Iraqi scene (by use of violence among other means).
- (vs) temptation by rivals (mainly #Gulf) to (over?)read setback as a net advantage in their favor.
(3)
• 2nd contextual element:
- Stalling of #Saudi/#Iran talks (#Yemen setback?), w clear #Gulf stiffening (#Lebanon?) as bargaining posture.
- soon new round of Iran/#US talks, w Vienna process becoming in final decisive phase.

THREAD:

Tomorrow, American and Iraqi delegations will sit down for Strategic Dialogue talks.

This is a big moment for the #US-#Iraq relationship with a new Biden administration and accumulating security concerns in Iraq.
The talks are intended to cover shared #US and #Iraq mutual interests across a range of topics, such as improvements in trade, development, aid, Iraq’s education, industrial, and health sectors, climate issues, and of course, the elephant in the room: security.
The #Biden administration has not been very clear on their #Iraq strategy, despite campaign trail commitments to defeat #Daesh and the US missile strike on a Kataib Hezbollah (KH) and Kaitaib Sayyid al-Shuhada (KSS) compound near the #Syria-Iraq border over a month ago.

🚨#Iran is moving medium-range surface-to-surface missiles to eastern #Syria.
The absolute Iranian controled east & west of the Euphrates in the region of ​​#AlBukamal allows the transfer of everything near Iran via Iraq and from there to Syria.@CENTCOMFarsi @coalition @IDF 1/4
The #missiles, (Fajr, Ra'ed, Al-Hussein), like the other weapons amd equipment that entered #Syria via #PMF, (under the command of Iranian Haj Reza, in charge of faciliating shipments from Iraq to Syria) were transported by trucks to the Al Hari area, an Iranian stronghold. 2/4
The #IRGC realized that control of the eastern and western part of the Euphrates River in the area between al-Miyadin and al-Kamal was critical to their success in establishing themselves in eastern Syria. 3/4

In his masterclass about crafting an effective pitch deck @YourStoryCo’s #TechSparks2020, @P_Kemps highlights some aspects that seem trivial but are important, some that are easy to miss, and some that mustn’t be missed. A 🧵-
1/ The title is as important as anything else in your deck. It should define your company in a single declarative sentence and can also be about your #mission & #vision.
2/ Tell a #story to explain your #purpose, tying your idea to a broader shift taking place in the world. Your company’s reason to be should be based on unique market/consumer insights driven by one or many of these changes 👇

I have worked & advocated against extra-judicial killings #EJKs by @policeNG for over 3 decades. In 2012, when I put out figures on #EJKs by @policeNG, the reaction of @NigeriaGov was to order my arrest. Today, we remain on #EndSARS.

premiumtimesng.com/news/4615-poli…
10 yrs ago, @OSFJustice released a rpt on @policeNG under the title #CriminalForce. I worked on that. It detailed a culture of wasting human life under a chapter titled "A Human Abbatoir". Despite our best efforts with @policereformNG, few ppl took notice. We're still in #EndSARS
In its 2008 rpt, the MD Yusuf Presidential Commission on Police Reform wrote that @PoliceNG was byword for “unlawful arrest & detention, extortion, torture, rape, #EJKs & other forms of brutality."

That report is still on the shelves of the SGF. We are still stuck on #EndSARS

@CJTFOIR says ISIS has been relaying mostly on small arms, IEDs & mortars for attacks in #Iraq #Syria but that attacks in Diyala, Salah ad Din were “more audacious" & showed "extensive pre-operational planning & preparation"
US-backed forces warned of a better prepared, more brazen #ISIS earlier this year, one source telling @VOANews that the terror groups fighters "are spread like cancer"

Like, the US-backed forces, US counterterrorism officials assessed #ISIS had "made incremental, localized improvements to their operating capacity in primarily eastern #Syria..."

As a former @StateDept official who worked on Iraq and Syria for a decade, two decisions taken by the Obama Administration greatly empowered #QassimSolimani. The first was allowing his #Qudsforce to successfully support #Assad. The second to play a leadership role in the #PMF
We watched him ferry supplies to Assad as early as 2012 over Iraqi airspace and eventually send Iraqi and Afghan militias, and Quds Force personnel. We watched them lay siege to, and starve countless Syrian towns from Homs to Mouadmaya to Aleppo.
Then we allowed his proxies a leadership role in the US-backer PMF that we provided indispensable air cover to and the support of a 70-nation counter-ISIS coalition. The Iraqi government begged us at the time to bail them out when Mosul fell. We could have kept Soleimani out.

For #PMFDay (product/market fit day), I'm explaining the ins and outs of each question from @seanellis' original product/market fit survey using @usefyi as the product example.

I've been waiting a long time to do this.

Here goes, starting with the key #PMF question...
@SeanEllis @usefyi This is the example product/market fit survey I'll be going through question by question.

It's a copy of the one we are currently running for @usefyi

hnshah.typeform.com/to/Sgqipf
@SeanEllis @usefyi How would you feel if you could no longer use FYI?

This is the only multiple choice question on the #PMF survey.

@SeanEllis's says that you have product/market fit if 40% or more of the respondents choose "Very disappointed".
