While jihadis roam around freely in the Banana Republic of Pakistan, the state authorities prefer to attack a women's rally. Frankly, I don't really approve of the whole message of intersectional feminists. I think some of it is really stupid and misguided. So I mostly ignore them.

If you don't like something, ignore it. But don't resort to bans and crackdowns. You're displaying your own weakness.

Hilarious story of how a Pakistani retired Major was recruited by the Pakistani intelligence to counter an Indian retired Major in the domain of information warfare, only to have the Pakistani Major turn against his own bosses. Now there are two Majors - twitter.com/i/web/status/1… The fun part is I have watched some videos of the Indian Major and I have seen some videos of the Pakistani Major - and I can say that there's no comparison of intellect between both. The Indian Major's caliber is much higher than the Pakistani one.

"Don't worry, everything will be ok": Part 2

Pakistani Defence Minister, Intelligence chief and other officials are in Kabul, Afghanistan to (once again) beg the Afghan Taliban to stop cross-border attacks and put a leash on TTP. Good luck with that. Nothing much will come out of this.

Worth noting that Pakistani delegation is in Kabul just hours after two cross-border attacks from Afghanistan, including one by the Afghan Taliban itself. 😄
